"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, hon. Wamwere was a very effective Member of this Committee, and I am sure he would like me to jog his memory, so that he can contribute to this Motion very objectively. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, to find the solutions to the problems of this country in terms of efficiency, we must rate these people on the basis of economical, efficient and effective application of resources given to them. Your grandchildren, and mine too, will be burdened by the yoke of debt. That debt is not disappearing soon. It is actually growing by the day simply because we have refused to be efficient, effective and economical in the application of our resources. Most of our public officials have gone to school, but they blind their eyes and grab. They just walk through the paths others have walked through. I want to submit that this House owes Kenyans a duty. This Parliament must be different from many other Parliaments. Things must now be done differently. We require to address these issues and know that Kenya belongs to us. You are stealing today, but tomorrow you will find yourself out there and it will be difficult to reverse what you will have done and history will judge you very harshly. With those few remarks, I beg to move and ask the hon. Archbishop Ondiek, who was our Reverend in the Committee, to second this Motion. April 12, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 615"
