    "content": "They are saying some are here and I am not talking about anyone who is here. So, do not fear if you are here. I am speaking about politicians who have registered foundations in their names. These foundations are ordinarily avenues for money laundering. People loot from public coffers and hide money in trust funds and foundations. Some with very appealing names and appealing characters of the good work they are doing in service to the people such as educating children, supporting widows, widowers and orphans. You will find someone who is running a foundation (I do not want to name names but they are known… Kenyans know the politicians who have foundations in their names claiming to be educating vulnerable children or assisting certain sectors of our health but they are basically avenues for laundering corrupt money. We will make it a thing of the past and impossible for now politicians to use public office to obtain money from public coffers. It will be hard for them to register a foundation or a trust fund then launder money that they stole from public coffers in the pretext that they are offering public goods or services to vulnerable people. It will now be very difficult Hon. Zamzam. I saw her getting very attentive when I mentioned politicians. She is among the politicians who are saying do not mention them. I am not mentioning any by name Hon. Zamzam. So, relax. I know the time you have been here as Member for Mombasa you have distinguished yourself as a good leader."
