    "content": "I would like to appeal to three agencies: Our own Committee on Implementation. I was in the last Parliament and when we were reviewing the Standing Orders, we felt that it was critical to have an ad hoc Committee to deal with implementation of the resolutions of this House. Shockingly, I do not see status reports of how decisions of this House are being implemented. The framers of the current Constitution, in their own wisdom, decided to create a number of state agencies to be funded by the taxpayers. They include the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations Department (CID). These institutions must not wait to be prodded by anybody to do their work. They must be willing at all times to seize any opportunity to protect the integrity of this country. Therefore, the three fraudsters, namely, Ms. Catherine Namuye, Mr. Dominic Bruce Odhiambo and Mr. Mukuria, must be charged in court. The Members of PIC, and by extension this House, have done their part. Action should be taken. The CID should arrest these people, confiscate their properties and let us have our money back. I want to thank all the Members who contributed to this Report. Because we are what we want to be, we must stand for the rights of our youth. Once upon a time, we were all youth. At some point, I was among the youngest Members of this House, but I may now be among the oldest. History changes and we should stand for the rights of our youth. With those remarks, I beg to move and pray that the members of the implementation agencies who are listening to us today will start implementing the recommendations contained in this Report from this evening."
