"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I did not want to read this letter. However, I will do so because this letter is what provoked investigation on the behaviour of this officer. We then sent two human resource officers to go all the way to Mt. Elgon and verify whether it is true that in the name of serving the Kenya Civil Servants Union this officer has been absenting himself for periods far too long and are not justifiable on the basis of the services to the union. Economic crime reminder of the letter of 20th May, 2011, adressed to the Anti Corruption Commission and copied to the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Public Works. The letter states as follows:- “Reference to the above, I would like to put to your attention that Mr. Benson Oyugi Ambuni of Personal No.1989006740 – telephone number given - of the Ministry of Works, Mt. Elgon, absconded from duty from December, 2008 and has been out of his work station to date. What concerns us, as Kenyans, through a reliable source is that Mr. Benson Ambuni has been receiving his monthly salary and even getting hardship allowances for services not delivered to the Government. From the same source Mr. Benson Ambuni has been doing this in collaboration with the District Works Officer of Mt. Elgon, the Ministry of Public Works. As a concerned Kenyan and an institution – mentioned - to bring the communication free from that, I will be looking forward to see what action you will be taking before we forward this to the media.” Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have made four copies of this letter for all the four hon. Members to look at and satisfy themselves that when we set up an inquiry, we had good cause to do so."
