    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, you can classify corruption in our country according to regimes; the first regime, the second regime and the third regime. You can use that to analyse how the cancer of corruption has progressed in our country. I want to begin in the year 2002 elections which were historic elections because for the first time those elections brought a regime change in our country. From Independence in 1963 to 2002 this country has been ruled by just one political party. In 2003, a new political party came into power and promised to fight corruption. It was then said that at that time Kenyans were rated as one of the most hopeful people in the planet. We had committed ourselves to eradicating corruption. We are committing ourselves to eradicate corruption in our country. What are the causes of corruption in our country? Corruption is caused by bad governance, political patronage, lack of political will, breakdown, erosion and pervasion of societal values and norms, non-enforcement of laws, tribalism, favoritism, nepotism and cronyism, weak or absence of management systems, weak procedures and practices, ineffective and weak institutions, misuse of discretionary power vested in individuals or officers, weak civil society and apathy, lack of professional integrity, absence of or weak regulatory institutional framework, lack of transparency and accountability, inefficient public sector and greed."
