Embakasi East MP Babu Owino recently voiced his frustration and anger over the lack of accountability for rogue police officers involved in maiming and killing innocent Kenyans. In his pointed remarks, Owino questioned why the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has not taken action against these officers. His statement, "What’s good for the goose is good for the gander," emphasizes the need for equal treatment under the law, implying that just as ordinary citizens are held accountable for their actions, so too should police officers be held responsible for their misconduct.
Owino's criticism reflects a broader sentiment of dissatisfaction among Kenyans who feel that justice is not being served when it comes to police brutality. The MP's call to action, "Wacheni kutubeba ufala," which translates to "Stop taking us for fools," underscores the urgency and frustration felt by many who demand transparency, accountability, and justice from law enforcement agencies.
This issue touches on significant themes such as the rule of law, human rights, and the need for reforms within the police force to prevent further abuses and ensure that those who commit crimes, regardless of their position, are brought to justice.
