    "content": "The other most important and crucial thing is Anglo Leasing, which is “an animal” on our neck today. We do not know whether some of the things have to do with payments for Anglo Leasing related deals because corrupt people are the not the common man. It is the greatest people in the land who can push you to pay these bills. The Minister should not pay any money on projects related to Anglo Leasing. If there is a problem, let him bring it to this House and we will decide whether it will be paid or not. We are not going to destroy the future of our children because of greedy Kenyans who have so much money which they do not even know what to do with and yet they still want to take more, not for themselves but to foreigners. Mr. Speaker, Sir, they use foreigners to do these things. We need to bring a law to this House to ensure that Kenyans spend their money in Kenya to create employment for our people. They should not go and enrich people outside this country. The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance and also the Minister for Trade should come up with laws on investments in this country. They should amend the existing laws, so that people can invest within a week. I have tried to help a private investor to put up a sugar-cane factory in my constituency for the last three years, but we have not been able to do it because of corruption. We have not been able to pay the Kenya Sugar Board. So, we have destroyed this nation. We are unable to create employment opportunities for our people because of corruption. The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance should deal with corruption. If you can deal with corruption, Kenya will reward you in future. It is a culture that is killing us all. It is a culture that we must stop, as a nation. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the other very important matter that I would like to address is the issue of water. If you look at the Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs) today, for example, Kajiado, Narok, Samburu, Turkana and North Eastern Province, people have no water. The rains are gone and we are not likely to see any rains in the near future. Money should be allocated in to construct dams. Let us have major dams in all those areas and,"
