• 20 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: The Member for North Horr talked about beefing up security. As I mentioned, Lodwar is a small town. I am not in a position to mention the names of the fellows who are looking for this particular person, but I want to assure the House that we will be able to arrest this person within this month. view
• 20 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, hon. Affey wants to know whether I am satisfied with the equipment that the police are using. Yes, I am very satisfied that the police are using modern equipment. Some of that equipment has led to the recovery of stolen goods. Some of the equipment has led us to where the fellows were hiding. The Police Department is in the process of buying high-tech equipment, some of which I will not mention here. So, I would like to assure this House that we are in a position to get hold of a suspect when he commits a ... view
• 20 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: I have heard that the new Constitution allows peaceful demonstration. However, the same Constitution does not allow destruction of property. So, for those who may want to demonstrate, they may go ahead and demonstrate peacefully. However, when they engage themselves in activities other than peaceful demonstration, like what happened yesterday, the police will act. In yesterday’s demonstration, pick-pockets caused havoc.

• 20 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the hon. Questioner knows very well that this was a newly created district and he knows what it takes for officers to be posted to a new district. First of all, we have to identify the DO1s--- view
• 20 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the hon. Member should have listened to me first before he rushes. I am saying that the problem he was having was as a result of the newly created districts. What happened was that we were transferring some of the experienced DCs to the expansive areas in order for them to create room for the DO1s who were being taken for training. That is exactly what happened on his part. Now that I have promised this House that by 29th, the DC will be at the hon. Member’s place, he should arrange for everything else ... view
