    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, sometimes we even see “ Askari Kanga” mounting a roadblock just to collect taxes. You will see a matatu which gave money in the morning just passing the roadblock even if it is overloaded. When they see the one which has not given money, they stop it. We want the Inspector General to tell Kenyans that if you go from point “A” to “B” there shall be a roadblock. This will ensure that we know it. We can mount cameras and the Press may access it, so that if you take a bribe--- We have even criminalized bribe-taking on the road because it must end. If you drive from Kisumu to Siaya, there are about 15 police roadblocks purely for taking bribes. In fact, sometimes an overloaded matatu passes by a roadblock and 100 metres from there, it is involved in an accident. We cannot blame the Government for that. We want people to take individual responsibility. So, we are also going to criminalize bribe-giving and bribe-taking. We will jail you when you take or give bribes, so that we get serious on the war against corruption."
