    "content": "The only way we are going to do our roads networks and have every village tarmacked, is by doing away with the corruption in the Ministry of Roads and Transport. The only way we can make sure we provide every Kenyan with water in their homes and farm for irrigation, is first by dealing with corruption. The moment we do not deal with corruption and conflicted civil servants, it will be a waste of time. If this law is not implemented, it is a waste of time. Kenyans need to go back to history and our morals. Many successful countries survive on morals. Our children should know that it is wrong to encourage corruption, receive or give a bribe. They should know this from primary school, secondary school, university, churches, Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) and through a culture of a general goodness of a nation, but not the individual benefit. This way, we will begin to build our nation. In my view, that will take a generation or two before we achieve such a country. I support and look forward to the Third Reading, where we can bring in amendments and make the law stronger and strict. That way, we will achieve the purpose it is intended for so that it does not become like Chapter 6 in the Constitution and the Anti-Corruption and Ethics Act, which are just there, with no resources to implement. We have many other laws that we hardly implement for lack of goodwill of the nation. I thank you. I support."
