"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, we have the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), who is notorious for withdrawing corruption cases, yet we keep on talking about fighting corruption. The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) is also there. I always say that the EACC is the most corrupt body in this country because they do not respect institutions. As I conclude, let us remember that we are here for a very short time. For the time we are here, let us make sure that we leave a mark in this country called Kenya. We have laws but they are only good on paper or are determined by other interested bodies. The aspect of making laws which are reactionary must come to an end. Madam Temporary Speaker, the Senate is there to oversight the Executive. It is not an extension of the Executive. It is not there to dance to the tune of the Executive. I thank you."
