"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, what is happening in Kenya is deplorable. Kenyans are left at the mercy of bankers. Some of these international banks are making the highest profits in the world in their branches in Kenya. The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance will, again, tell us about market forces, after the pockets of the money cartels are full, he would then intervene, or maybe they will use the regulator, behind the scenes, and things will stabilize the way they stabilized. It is irresponsible of this Parliament to go home, leave Kenyans with the threats of losing their hard earned homes and shelters because of interest rates. It is irresponsible for us to go home, even though we are tired, and leave Kenyans at the mercy of cartels. There must be some interventions. If it works in other countries, through gentlemenâs agreement, let the Deputy Prime Minister and the regulator wake up. If they do not, then Parliament must do the work for them. That is what we are here to do."
