    "content": "One example is the whistleblower of the Maasai Mara University. As it was mentioned, that person has now been suspended by a committee of the university. Where is recourse in this country in terms of fighting corruption? When someone becomes a whistleblower of a grand corruption to save public money, the person is still victimized. How serious are the agencies concerned with fighting corruption? How do they protect accountants who put their lives at risk by exposing grand corruption, but end up paying the price by losing their jobs? Madam Temporary Speaker, I have a Statement on that, but I just felt I should give the House a heads-up on that issue because the gentleman was suspended. I think that will be a big blow in terms of our fight against corruption, especially in the leadership and top brass of this country led by His Excellency President Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta. He has made several statements about the seriousness of his Government in fighting corruption. There are people who continue perpetuating these fraudulent malpractices. It is high time they pay and are brought to book. I thank you."
