Before I proceed, I have a confession to make. About an hour ago, I was called upon to contribute to this Motion. I and Dr. Kones were among the Members who made the calculations of the perceived loss which turned to be a reality when the Auditor-General tabled his report. Unlucky, the Clerks and myself have scavenged through the files and we were unable to trace the file which I made my own calculations on the day Mr. Kimunya appeared before the Committee. It is a sad thing for a whole file to have grown legs and disappeared. Secondly, when I walked out to look for my file, I had left my card logged on. Unfortunate enough when I came back again, my card disappeared. I had to ask for a replacement from the Serjeant-At-Arms and that is why it took me long even to come and contribute. Even at the time of voting, I was incapacitated because I could not log on anywhere. Whether people want to say Mr. Kimunya and Prof. Ndung’u were culpable or not is a different thing, but Kenyans have to understand that money was lost in the De La Rue printing"}
