"content": "laptops. Probably, we were going to see another Ken-Ren in the making. Therefore, I would urge His Excellency the President, the Deputy President and the entire Cabinet, that instead of bothering Kenyans who are already pressed with the high cost of living – because really reducing someone’s salary is not possible - to seal these loopholes which we have seen over the years. Hon. Speaker, some people are being listed today as who is who in this country; the richest, the wealthiest. They are put on the front pages of the media, but these are the people who “ate” money for Ken-Ren and we know them. They are there and they hold huge banks accounts and they own tall buildings in this country. Why can we not take steps? These people are no longer powerful in Government, they used to be powerful during Moi’s Government, but they are no long powerful. Why do we treat them as if they are gods? We need to take action on these people so that in future, no one will think of stealing from the public coffers. Hon. Speaker, I would have gone on and on, but I can see the light is on. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
