    "content": "Report is public, I am going to read another one from the Inspectorate of State Corporations. So, you are then buying time for the wrong reasons. It is good to have this issue investigated by Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC). Let me confirm that EACC was one of the agencies that appeared before the PIC. They gave us very useful information. They have been investigating this for the last one-and-half years. The same way PAC investigated the issue of IEBC and brought a Report and ensured that there is action, this is the same thing we are trying to do. We are in the process of doing that. We are only being fair. I want to plead with hon. Wario that suggesting that the trustees should not be investigated does not assist the individual. Until these allegations are proved by EACC, these individuals are not culpable. Why do you not allow them to subject themselves to the rule of law and be investigated? If they are found not culpable, I am sure somebody will say that they have not committed any criminal offence and, therefore, they are clean. If, however, they have committed a crime, and this is against the people of Kenya--- Let me declare that 87 per cent of my constituency relies on relief food that comes from NCPB. I believe the same applies to hon. Wario and hon. Shidiye. If there is a part of Kenya that requires a vibrant and functioning NCPB, then it is North Eastern Province. We should be the last people ever to suggest or side with cartels which are out to grind to a halt the activities and operations of NCPB."
