    "content": "have that kind of excess money within the YEDF. It is important for us to look at the laws, particularly those that are brought just a year before elections. We should scrutinise them and not just pass regulations or legislation that will give some leeway to some banks. We might be blaming the two young Kenyans, but they read the law and saw the loophole they could use and they used it. They will just say that they were allowed by the law to do that. So, it is important for us to look at the legislation that is brought during the electioneering period. I did a strategic plan for 10 years in my NGCDF, assuming I will be re-elected. Another Member of Parliament may come and do the same strategic plan for purposes of pocketing money. These are things that need to be critically looked into so that we do not allow people to get money, because a strategic plan has a lifespan. If you want to spend, you must indicate that other issues have arisen and there is need to change it. I hope that the culprits who misappropriated the YEDF will be taken to court. We have a Report which needs to be taken to the investigating agencies so that we can get justice. With those few remarks, I support the Report."
