    "content": "Most of the commissions have nine commissioners. If we reduce the commissioners to three, we will save close to Kshs720 million a year. If we reduce the board members in State corporations, we will be talking about saving billions of shillings. If we retrench idle staff in most of these State corporations, for example, Kerio Valley Development Authority (KVDA) where I was before--- It has over 600 staff members who are doing nothing. When we have more people or commissioners working in these institutions, they wrangle with staff over work. They are idle and as you know: An idle mind is the workshop of the devil. That is where we have a lot of corruption. The other State wastage is in flawed procurement. We know there are inflated road contracts. That is what the Government and the county governments need to check."
