"content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, probably we need to borrow from the United States of America and some of these jurisdictions where Parliament can appoint a special counsel or prosecutor. If they cannot have a mechanism of ensuring that we can have a special counsel. This is so that in this matter instead of making these recommendations, we will be directing a special counsel to investigate and we come out with the solution that makes sense to the people of Kenya. Mr. Speaker, Sir, if we take it to the EACC, probably the prosecution will be very selective as it is most of the time. Sometimes, this fight against corruption is very seasonal. When it comes, people are excited and the next round another bunch comes. In the third round, another bunch comes and it goes on and on. For those reasons, I propose that this Report becomes part of our records, which can be used by this House and any other agency. However, to leave it the way it is, I would rather oppose it and leave it to the House to make note as a record."
