    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to support the formation of this particular Committee. Before I debate it, allow me to use this opportunity to send my sympathies to members of the family and friends of the Speaker of the County Assembly of Embu and regret that up to now, I have not been able to visit him at the hospital, not because of my own choice but because my lawyer of many years of standing advised me that having chaired that Committee, if I were to go there, it is possible to give an impression that there was an element of connivance between the Chair of the Committee that led to the impeachment of Wambora and the Speaker who led the County Assembly. Having said that, my fear is that we might be witnessing a response from the merchants of corruption against the Speaker of the County Assembly of Embu. Since we are talking about public resources, we would like the merchants of corruption to know that we have no other home. Our home is called Kenya. In fact, some of us only got a passport after we became professionals. The children of some of those merchants have passports immediately they hit 18 years old. Some of them travel on their parents passports even before they hit 18 years old. They should give us a break because we want to put our house in order and our house is Kenya.
