    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to take this opportunity to thank the President and congratulate him for the Speech he gave touching on many issues, which are very crucial to Kenyans. I want to start with the corruption issue. Looking at this Report, it is kind of a very shallow report from the EACC. It says that most of these issues or allegations against the people concerned are from 2011/2012 up to 2014. If investigations have not been completed from 2011, what will they do in the next 60 days? The issue of corruption needs to be handled very seriously. It is not an issue which should be handled in a manner of just brushing it off. In my view, when we talk of stepping aside, it is something we have seen as Kenyans for so long. Stepping aside means there is a tsunami or a wave coming; you step aside and after it passes, you go back. We want to see action like prosecuting people, or suspending people from office. We do not want to see the stepping aside, coming back and moving on as usual."
