    "content": "For example, we are seeing corruption happening in the Harambee Savings and Credit Co-operation (SACCO) Society Ltd. We have seen senior management people walking out and non-performance of loans within the SACCO. It is time that the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights is requested to look at these issues. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, what is happening at Harambee SACCO is very sad. You will find that senior management are walking out of the Harambee SACCO, in which the Government has shares. There is non-performance of loans at a time when we are dealing with Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). The Harambee SACCO is now becoming a bastion of corrupt practices, poor public relations services and poor governance. I think that the board and the management should be careful. I am pointing out Harambee SACCO because that is what is happening to Kenyans as we talk about the future. Finally, as Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. has said, I hope that the issue of the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) appeal will be resolved once and for all. I support the Episcopal Conference and Catholic Bishops who said that BBI is not a necessity. We can do it after 2022. Let us have our elections, then when the hustler nation has taken over, we can now come and fix the country through BBI. I support the Motion."
