I believe through the police reforms for which we are about to receive the final report, we are going to clean up all the national security agencies and make it impossible for people wearing the country uniform to be participants in crime. Even if it means re-establishing the agencies afresh, reforming them and dealing with succession management and leadership, so that not anyone becomes a commander or a leader, we will do it.

He is not a police officer of where he is stationed. Therefore, if he can save a life, assist in apprehending offenders or do other things that affect our security, it does not matter. You cannot watch somebody being robbed, and you are a police officer. You have the capacity to thwart that attempt even if it is across the road, which is a boundary of your jurisdiction. On this matter, we will find details in terms of complaints and follow up with the policing authorities to make sure no officer refuses to assist Kenyans in distress by simply citing ...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, the Ministry of Interior and National Administration coordinates the issue of drug control and campaign. There are many other players and actors who support the course. As I said earlier today, I officiated the opening of a treatment and rehabilitation centre in Nyeri. Many players had participated in putting it up, including NACADA, the county government and others. Therefore, any stakeholder contributing to this effort, including the Spouse of the Deputy President, will find a home in NACADA as the coordinating agency. So, we can pull our efforts and work together. We cannot prevent any support or ...

I am left with two. Let me answer them in a minute. The Member for Baringo South asked when the bandits would be removed and weeded out from Rugus, Mukutani and all the other areas. I do not know, but we are doing whatever we can day and night. We do not sleep, and we will neither retreat nor surrender. We will not change our minds nor give in. We will reclaim any space and secure every part of our country, but nobody will harass us because that way, we will lose it. The language of bandits and terrorists is ...
