    "content": "Thank you, neighbour for that. It is important to acknowledge that as much as the Committees are mandated to summon the CSs to come and answer questions, it has been a difficult process. Some of the Committees go further to sanction or fine the CSs so that they appear before us. I totally agree with you that it is important for Members of the Executive to come from Parliament. This way, it is will be easy for them to know what the debate is about their mandate. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Bill seeks to amend Chapter Six of the Constitution on Leadership and Integrity to strengthen the fight against corruption by providing mechanism for expeditious conduct of investigation, prosecution and trials on corruption related matters. The culture of corruption has grown roots in the society of Kenya. It has become a disease that we grow up with. Corruption persists in Kenya primarily because there are people in power in various offices, who benefit from institutional governance, but lack integrity in the capacity they hold."
