Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I agree and she has a right. It is true the police arrested 14 suspects. It is good to appreciate that it is a constitutional right of any suspect to get released on bond, and that is exactly what happened.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Speaker, it is true and she knows. I raised this issue with the Deputy Inspector-General of Police. We conversed at length with her. Allow me to keep engaging her and see what we can do.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) I am, Hon. Speaker.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Speaker, I will raise the issue with the Inspector General of Police.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Speaker, it is very regrettable. You know, other than this case, we have really had a spike in insecurity in the country, Luanda included. So, I am committing to go and see the IG, together with the concerned Member, for 3rd December 2024...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. First, the issue of being fatally injured is more or less the same thing. It is like someone died. The response was delivered about two or three weeks ago. If need be, I can get the updated report. When I...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me an opportunity. The issue the Member for Nandi Hills raised is very serious, and it should be of great concern to Kenyans. I remember that in the last Parliament, a similar issue was reported in some...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) I want to add something.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Speaker, as much as I would want to agree with the Vice-Chairperson, and advice of the Deputy Speaker, we had a one-hour discussion with Hon. Parashina in my office a few hours ago over the same issue. We know Narok and Kajiado boarder...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) I will try, Hon. Speaker, by Thursday next week.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Speaker.

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, it is not really a point of order. I rose up earlier and supported the Bill. I hope we will have an opportunity to amend the Bill because there is a part in the Bill… 27th November 2024 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES...

Hon. Gabriel Tongoyo (Narok West, UDA) Hon. Oundo proposed that the board members should have a bachelor’s degree, and we should appreciate that. We all agree that the Bill is very progressive and we support it in totality. But on the issue of the qualifications of those…
