5 Dec 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have already explained that the information from Voi Police Station is that there were no cartridges taken there. There were also no bullet wounds on the carcass of the bull that was found dead and half-eaten. Without any information from those who witnessed the incident, the police cannot do anything. The witnesses have not come out to record statements, even when they have been asked to do so by the police. All that I know is that the police and the GSU officers were there, and the herders left the ranch peacefully. If there was any ...

29 Nov 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to apologise that the answer has not been given to him. This Question was not originally in the schedule and we discovered that it is there this morning. It was not in the original schedule that was sent to the Ministry. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, however, I beg to reply. (a) The Government has allocated Kshs200 million this financial year, 2006/2007, for the rehabilitation of existing police houses and buildings in the country.

29 Nov 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is an exaggeration to claim that there is a police station without a toilet. I have been to police stations and I have seen toilets there. But it is true that some of them are dilapidated and the Government has already allocated enough money to rehabilitate the facilities. One of the measures we are taking is that we are digging boreholes where water supply is not enough. In this financial year, Kshs200 million has been allocated. There is a major programme to improve housing and sanitary facilities in police stations across the country. The work ...

29 Nov 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in the past, it is true that our police have not been very good to the citizens of this country and there is a programme of changing their attitudes. They are to be educated so that they can treat citizens of this country humanly. It is known that the police are now changing their attitudes and we can see that the way they used to treat people when Mr. Raila was in the cells is not the same way they are treating people now.

29 Nov 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have already said that the programme is going on. But it is also important to realise that the water shortage problems in police stations is connected with water shortage problems in areas where they are situated. For example, the shortage of water in police stations in Nairobi is connected with the general water problems in Nairobi. Now there is a new company in Nairobi that is making the provision of water first priority. But we have already allocated money to deal with the problem. I think in a year or so, that will be a ...

(a) I am aware that Police Constable Osere Okwore was stabbed to death by a suspect who was being interrogated by police officers at Chemuche Village, East Kabrass Location on 15th April, 2004. (b) I am also aware that the family submitted part of the required documents for processing of death benefits. However, the father of the deceased and the chief of the area were asked to confirm the whereabouts of the deceased's widow who is identified in the records as Josephine Nyamanga Okwore, being the next of kin as stated by ...
