    "content": "The issue of corruption started with the independence of this country. It has been there and in my opinion, the people who have been in office have been the originators of corruption in this country. It is only fair to say that the last few months have seen this country truly fight corruption, where the big fish have also been netted by the initiative our President started in this House. The problem that we have is that corruption has been devolved. We have serious problems in the counties; perhaps, the EACC and other bodies that are supposed to fight corruption have their resources and structures overstretched. Going to every corner of this country where all sorts of crazy things are happening, is extremely difficult due to the manpower and resources that they have. It is important, therefore, that even as we change the structure of the EACC, we also see to it that their capacity is built in terms of resources and funding, so that they can reach areas that they have not been able to reach so far. Perhaps, we should have functional and serious offices in all counties in this country."
