"content": "From that basis, I needed to expound to find out what these companies that had been complained about during that impeachment, what these companies that had been complained about in the Esther Maina decision in terms of money laundering had to do with the Deputy President and the things that I am alleging against him. It is on that basis that I listed these companies. I want to invite Members of the Senate to also know that in doing this, it is not just about the direct evidence. It is also about the circumstantial evidence. It is also about the circumstances that led to where we are. There are companies that were complained about doing business in Nyeri County, it came to this Senate. The same companies were complained about, doing money laundering and a decision of the High Court by Justice Maina has been tabled before you. Today, we are complaining that the same companies are helping to do corruption and money laundering. That is the reason why we bring those companies. Please, notice that in an impeachment - because I have been asked about threshold and I know you know about it - my work here is to not to prove criminal liability; it is not to prove beyond reasonable doubt. My work here is not to prove civil liability, but to show political responsibility. I have been able to do so. In terms of Vipingo Ridge, the question I want to invite hon. Senators - I request that you listen to me - you heard yesterday that the two sons of His Excellency the Deputy President, are mere directors at Vipingo Ridge and that the shares are owned by the estate of the late Nderitu Gachagua."
