    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not want to be seen to be anticipating debate because the document has since been laid on the Floor of the House. But it is also important that we recognize that a Committee of this Parliament is actually Parliament itself. When we were passing the Constitutional Review Act, I do not know how we could subject the work of this Parliament to other Committees. We need to look into these issues, so that we do not erode the very mandate that is given to us by the people of this country. I will always stand for the supremacy of this House. Therefore, I want again to thank the President for clearly coming out on the war against corruption. I think we are all committed to this. As hon. ole Ntimama has just said, we cannot allow Kenya to be a failed state. Therefore, we need to be able to stand up. When hon. K. Kilonzo announced his candidature for Presidency, I think he will follow my example. When I was running for the presidency, I said that in accordance with what is expected of a serious presidential candidate, we should all declare our wealth. In the last general elections, I was the only presidential candidate who did that. I think this is where the rubber meets the road. I think these are some of the places where we cannot say where the weather started beating us, because we give lip service to the fight against corruption. Therefore, whether we are Members of Parliament, top civil servants or whoever, we have to walk our talk. I know that His Excellency the President is absolutely committed to this fight, of course, with that rider that we should not politicize the war against corruption. I think this is important. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, at this particular time, I have seen our friends from ODM announcing that we should wholly support the Draft Constitution as tabled. I think we have to give room for negotiation, so that we carry everybody with us. I am sure that when you have a whole cardinal â and we have only one cardinal in this country â His Eminence Cardinal Njue, threatening action against what we are going to come up with, because at the end of the day, we have to go to the people of this Republic for a referendum. Let us help them through the process. There are issues that I think we have to accept at this particular time. There are issues that need to be ironed out. When a Committee of this House comes up with a political consensus which then gets eroded by the Committee of Experts, I get concerned. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to stop there in order to give a chance to my colleagues who want to speak. I concur and support."
