    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, looking at 20 Ministries, there is a figure of at least Kshs9.2 billion which is on documents tabled by the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance in this House. We are talking of a sum of money that is three times more than the amount that was set aside for strategic food reserves. In these circumstances, I want him to come and tell this House why he presented documents that were forged or that contained false entries that resulted in this House approving Supplementary Estimates that show an amount in excess of Kshs9.2 billion having been either stolen or unaccounted. To enable him to do so, I am making available a random selection of the entries from the Estimates that we approved in this House last week. In this regard, if it is true that these were falsified documents, then Mr. Speaker as the Presiding Officer of this House, have an obligation to tell us what we, as Members of Parliament, should do with Government documents which are tabled in this House bearing Government seals and prepared by senior officers of this Government who conspire to steal public funds and then get approval of this House. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am sorry I could not raise it last week because you had sent me out of this country on Parliamentary business. The Estimates were approved despite these glaring discrepancies which show colossal amount of money that has not been accounted for or has been stolen. He should tell us whether this is the money that is secretly being used to pay the Anglo leasing, Kenren and all these other fake contracts that the Government continues to pay up to this day. I am laying these documents on the table of the House to enable the Minister to look at the figures to give an explanation to this House."
