    "content": "To stick to the point, the concern of this House and this country, is that we do not want the Minister for Finance to help us to join him in burying our heads in the sand, that this money is back here and we are not going to be faced with any litigation of whatever kind out of these transactions. 1214 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES May 9, 2007 The Treasury being the custodian of all our finances and our future, should come out and say that they were actually cancelled and we are not liable for anything. Or the Minister tells this country: \"We have a problem. Legally, we may not be able to cancel them.\" In the same HANSARD he says:- \"They are like a bankers cheque; they cannot be revoked!\" In the next sentence, he says that he cannot pay them. Let the Minister come out categorically and conclusively state that we are not indebted to these transactions that amount to Kshs86 billion as he wants Kenyans to believe. If he does that, we shall have no problem. We do not want political lectures or people oppressing and condemning others. Let the truth come out. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, with those few remarks, I beg to support."
