    "content": " I will refer to him as Hon. Osoro but he is also heckling me. Corruption is a disease that is killing us. Do you know how the President brought it up? He said that the misuse of funds and other forms of corruption are unacceptable and he will deal with them. What do you mean you will deal with them? When will you deal with them? You have been in State House for over one year. The President once said in church that he can make promises that will take a long time to be realised, but he will not take us for granted. When he says that corruption is a disease, he should deal with it. The President promised to deal with corruption when he came to this House to give us his first Speech after we had just been elected. He has come back one year later to, again, tell us that he will deal with corruption. Is he trying to confirm or justify the statement that he made in church to please churchgoers that some promises take long to fulfil? We cannot wait any longer for him to deal with corruption because we are losing millions of shillings. Hon. Members, as much as you want to celebrate your President, tell him the truth that vitu kwa ground ni different. He talked about mama mboga . I spoke to a mama mboga in Kondele who asked me whether I see the President when I go to Nairobi. I told her that I see him from a distance. She said that if I ever got close to him, I should tell him never to refer to mama mboga again. They are not his people and he used them. He does not care about them. The country is bleeding. Let us not pretend. Wananchi are in pain, whether they supported the Kenya Kwanza Coalition or the Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Alliance. Let us tackle the struggle to obtain food before we talk about medicine or anything else. I disown the President’s State of the Nation Address. He did not address the nation, but he undressed the nation. It is painful."
