    "content": "today courtesy of harambees. I am a product of harambee. We need to rethink about this law. I will ask my brother, Sen. Cheruiyot, to rethink about this law. We might even request him to withdraw first, so that we come up with a simplified version of conducting harambees. We should not say we are doing this because the Gen Zs were protesting. There are known leaders. If you see a leader giving out Kshs20 million or Kshs55 million in an harambee, the best you can do is to send the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) to do lifestyle audits, but you cannot ban the harambees. If you see Cherarkey giving Kshs20 million in a harambee, and you know he does not have that money, just send the EACC and the KRA to do lifestyle. That is how we will resolve this issue. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, please, allow me one more second; I think the spirit of the Lord has just got in. I reject the Public Fundraising Appeal Bill, 2024, until we amend it to fit Kenyans, so that they can comfortably do fundraising without interference from the Government or anybody. I thank you."
