Kimani Ichung’wah","speaker":null,"content":" I was saying, when Hon. John Mbadi stood on a point of order, I was gracious to sit down and allow him to prosecute his point of order and respond. That did not allow him the leeway to impute improper motive on something I raised as a Member of Parliament. I do not raise issues on theft that happened in the previous regime as the Leader of the Majority Party, but as a Kenyan and the Member for Kikuyu Constituency. Hon. Deputy Speaker, the fact is that I have raised it and Hon. John Mbadi can confirm from the HANSARD. I said that when these matters arrive before his Public Accounts Committee (PAC), I am ready, willing and available to adduce evidence of those people who were siphoning money from Government coffers to Malaysia onwards to the Cayman Islands. That is why I am challenging Hon. John Mbadi not to get jittery that people are speaking out. We will continue to speak out. I would like you to rule Hon. John Mbadi out of order for imputing improper motive on my person, saying that unless I was siphoning this money together with those people that I know about... This is how he intimidates witnesses not to adduce evidence before committees. I will be the last person to be intimidated, whether it is Hon. John Mbadi or anyone else. I will appear before his Committee and adduce evidence. Therefore, you must protect me from this imputing of improper motive by recklessly just speaking to the gallery. The issue I had raised was about speaking to the gallery, which he is exactly doing now. Hon. John Mbadi, you know you are my junior professionally. I qualified as a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) when he was a first-year student at the University of Nairobi and still pursuing his Section IV. When he was a junior finance officer at the University of Nairobi Enterprises (UNES), I had already qualified as an accountant. You might be older but professionally you are my junior."}
