    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker I should have known better. Apologies. The world over, the cancer of corruption has spread exponentially, especially in developing countries with devastating socio-economic and governance consequences. It persists in developing countries despite the proliferation of legal, institutional and other measures that have been put in place to fight corruption. In mitigation, The United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) was initiated in 2003 and has since been recognised as a reference framework for the fight against corruption. Kenya was one of the first countries who signed this Convention. The UNCAC implementation requires the participation of political stakeholders such as the GOPAC and the African Parliamentarians’ Network Against Corruption (APNAC). It reflects the conviction of the States Parties that anti-corruption measures should be embedded in coordinated policies instead of being carried out in isolation or an ad hoc manner.
