See the sad moment Malala cries in senate – Video

It was emotional scenes as Senator Malala broke down in the senate during a joint sitting of the Senate Committees on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights and the National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations with the Inspector General of Police.

Malala complained that even after reporting his life was in danger, calls to have his security beefed has been routinely ignored. The senate directed Inspector General of Police Hilary Mutyambai to enhance the security detail of the Senator.

“I am a young father and husband… It is very disheartening for people to sit in a corner and think they can take my life. I humbly request this committee and the Inspector General of Police to take note that I have said time and again my life is in danger. I have written enough letters and called offices in this Republic but they have not taken any action even to give me extra security,” said a sobbing Malala.

“Nobody is willing to give me security Mr. Chair. It is sad for me to walk around the streets of Kakamega and Kenya knowing that I’m going to die the next day,” Malala added.

Malala had written last month to to Inspector General of Police Hillary Mutyambai and Director of Criminal Investigations George Kinoti in an effort to have his security beefed. In the later he said, “As a result of those real and credible threats to harm, injure, eliminate or assassinate me, a Member of Parliament, I now request your office to take immediate action to enhance the security detail assigned to me including additional security provided immediately to my family and my residences in Kakamega and Nairobi.”
