    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. This House must rise to the occasion and support Kenyan investors. We cannot allow the Government to steal from Jack Ma, from COVID-19 dying patients in the name of “COVID-19 billionaires” and to also kill local businesses. These businesses are employing so many Kenyans and they are paying a lot of taxes. Now, the Government does not even obey court orders when they are supposed to pay this Equip Agencies Limited its dues. As a House, we must rise and force the Government to pay, in totality, the Kshs80 billion that is owed to the company. These companies have confidence in Kenya unlike other companies or individuals who take our money into offshore accounts. They have decided to invest in this country and are paying taxes and employing Kenyans. What are the companies with offshore accounts doing to Kenyans? They are neither paying taxes nor employing Kenyans. The Government must pay."
