"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, shockingly, when we reflected on this and compared it with all the other past privatisation processes, the only conclusion we could draw as Members is that all the privatisation that has taken place over the last two decades was oriented, centered or choreographed in such a way to benefit a clique. This clique has amassed so much wealth in the Republic of Kenya that today, to some extent, is a security threat to the survival of the 40 million Kenyans. This clique must be named. It must be shamed so that it does not repeat this. This is why today even some of the key privatisation attempts that have been made over the last two or three years, very few reputable international entities were willing to participate simply because the whole privatisation process was either corruptly driven or completely flawed. Nobody wants to participate in the process. The Telkom Kenya is an entity that if it had been properly privitised, it would have generated many job opportunities, created income and made huge returns to the taxpayers and eventually we would have been proud of. I am not sure whether there is any one of you here who is a Telkom Kenya subscriber. I am not sure. If I would ask you, you are either in Safaricom or Airtel. The reason they do not have subscribers is that their services are wanting. They do not have the facilities. What happened? This is the question everybody is asking."
