    "content": "On the issue of the Office of the Prime Minister, this is just a waste of resources and money. There is no point of having them there. On the replacement of the IEBC commissioners, that is a good idea because we want new IEBC commissioners. We do not want the ones that aree nominated by the President, so that everybody would be happy. Finally, the problem we have is not the cost of living. The biggest problem we have is corruption. I have seen today that the Government wants to propose a budget of Kshs4 trillion. If we reduce corruption by only 15 per cent, we will save Kshs600 billion. Nonetheless, if we reduce it to zero, we will save Kshs1.2 billion. Moreover, look at the counties. Who manages counties? Corruption is at almost 50 per cent. This is in public domain and everybody knows. Does it mean that these monies going to the counties not Kenyan money? It is the public’s money. Madam Temporary Speaker, on the restoration of privileges enjoyed by the coalition leaders; I do not know why security was removed from our friends on the other side. What is the reason? Why are you removing the security and what will happen the next time we are going to be in the opposition? Therefore, that means we will not get security also. I thank you."
