    "content": " Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the few years I have been on this God’s good earth, I have worked in many places. For example, in Canada, you could not be allowed to tender in your company. You were allowed to tender in other companies. For the benefit of Mr. Midiwo, I was not working with Mr. Miguna Miguna. Later on, I worked in Australia, but I could not tender in my company. When we were working with the World Bank, we were not allowed to participate in tenders. Justice not only needs to be done, but it needs to be seen to be done. I support the position taken by the Committee. As I conclude, I want to remind hon. Members of the state of affairs in this country. We can pretend if we wish, but the fact is 30 per cent of our budgetary resources get lost in pilferage through corruption. I want to remind hon. Members that 30 per cent of Mr. Githae’s budget is Kshs450 billion that goes to waste because of corruption. We must rise to the occasion even if making the right decision may hurt some of our individual interests. I support."
