"content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, I am not so sure what hon. Kabando wa Kabando is asking me to do but if I got him correctly, he is asking me to cite a few more cases to show that this Government cannot fight corruption. I just said that expecting this Government to fight corruption is a tall order. That is my expression. It is what I believe in, for some good reasons. Firstly, this Government is not very old but hon. Members will recall that just last week, there was a case where one of the Cabinet Secretaries that were appointed just the other day, was accused that, probably, a bank he was presiding over was involved in corruption between April and May. That is really serious. I want to add that it is not rumours when I say that some people, and very senior people in the Jubilee Government, and we know them, have been accused and found to probably have done so taking away land from a poor person â an Internally Displaced Person (IDP). I wish you came and even took my land. Why do you take land from such a poor person? Then you expect such a person really to fight corruption? It is expecting too much from this Government and that is why I am saying this Parliament should deal with corruption."
