Mr. Speaker, Sir, I agree with Sen. Monga’re Okong’o because this case is very serious. He is being accused of money laundering to the tune of Kshs6 billion. Officials at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have already told us that there are many other Kenyans with lesser crimes that are being held there. Since there was going to be a meeting between the two Ministries, hopefully, Sen. Mong’are’s question will be properly addressed at that time.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, this matter had been raised with the Head of State of Tanzania. It will not help much by calling Kenya’s Attorney General (AG) on a matter that is in another country. The CS, Foreign Affairs has explained herself here, very well that, on 4th they will raise the issue. There will be a meeting in Tanzania to discuss the same. We should avoid duplicating the matter because the AG will not add any value. We cannot force Tanzania to do what they do not want to do.

28 Oct 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the Statement, it was clearly stated that investigations are going on and if anybody will be found culpable, necessary steps will be taken. As to the allegations that the police aggravated the situation, that is incorrect. According to the statement, when students started rioting, police reinforcement had come all the way from Kisumu to Maseno. Therefore, there was no time to arrest the situation when it started. That is the best I could do in answering my brother.

28 Oct 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I differ with my brother here because to say that the police used excessive force is not true because the statement stated that the students had put up a roadblock, harassing motorists and taking money by force from them. The police did not fire any live ammunition. They used teargas which is normally used in such a situation. As to who is culpable for this, investigations going on will adduce who is responsible and the law will take its course.
