"content": "Therefore, I urge the DCI and DPP in my concluding remarks that they should stop playing public relations exercise by saying DCI and DPP does not see eye to eye. It is none of our business. Our business is when they prosecute cases. They should not be going to the media and newspapers and saying DPP wants to be removed; the DCI does not see eye to eye with DPP. That is none of our business. These are perpetrators of horrendous crimes. This is genocide because most Kenyans die because of lack of masks and oxygen. It is like dancing on the graves of the dead. We must stop these issues by ensuring that we prosecute. Most Kenyans, families, children, wives and husbands lost their kin because of exposure to COVID-19 due to lack of oxygen, masks or personal protective equipment (PPEs). In conclusion, most of the health workers, nurses and doctors died because of lack of Personal Protective Equipment (PPEs), oxygen and masks. This is because the people who stole from the Kenya Medical Supplies Authority (KEMSA) committed genocide. This is genocide. These are murderers. If the office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) do not prosecute these people, we are dancing on the graves of those who died and they will never forgive us. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I hope this report will be implemented fully. We need people to be charged and prosecuted. This should be an example. The tears of widows, widowers, orphans and nurses unions and many others cannot go in vain. The people who did this must be prosecuted and pay back. Their assets must be frozen. They must go to prison and serve their jail time, so that we are serious in ensuring that this issue of KEMSA is resolved once and for all. Therefore, I hope people who want to become governors---I want to make a small comment on the issue of the KEMSA Act. We must review and open to ensure counties also can get pharmaceuticals and drugs from other agencies. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank you and cede time to other colleagues to proceed."
