    "content": "about time that we, as legislators, stood up together and brought the right amendments to this Bill, so that the right justification is done towards the public procurement process. There are lots of reports which have been released by the World Bank and International Monetary Fund (IMF). They talk about public procurement benching, which is a concept that we must also look into. I do not know how we will bring that in the future within our country because we are already looking to open our borders. In my view, corruption has increased 47 times. Before, we had few provinces and now we have 47 counties. In my opinion, corruption has increased 47 times. We must do the necessary to make sure that culprits are brought to book and people can benefit. In conclusion, a very interesting scholar, Mahatma Gandhi, once said that he will not let anybody walk through his mind with dirty feet. It is about time we all stood up to support this Bill with the necessary amendments. With those few remarks, I support the Bill."
