    "content": "listening to foreign masters is the Government, which includes this institution; Parliament. We are all taking gifts of money to help us in our work. Parliament and the Executive accept support for their projects. The Judiciary also accepts support. So, which foreign masters are you talking about? Let us think about ourselves and be responsible for our fate as a country. Many Kenyans supported this Constitution. Now that it passed, it is our Constitution; whether you voted “Yes” or “No.” Let us uphold this document to usher in a new dawn for Kenyans. Let us stop splitting hairs. It is a question of where do you stand as a Kenyan? Where do you stand as an elected representative? Are you going to forward your personal views or the views of the public? If we support the views of the public as contained in this document, we are going to strengthen the Leadership and Integrity Law, so that it can serve this nation and help Kenyans to benefit from the resources that belong to them. It can reclaim Kenyans from the clique or cartels that have currently hijacked the country. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a Bill that will usher freedom to the majority of Kenyans. I am urging the hon. Members that we are now seized of the matter and no longer can keep on blaming the Executive. We are now participants and so, let us do our bit. If that is the best that the Executive could do, then let us see what is the best Parliament will do. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, with those many remarks, I beg to support, subject to those amendments."
