    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to add my voice to the Bill. It is very painful when you see leaders and politicians trying to sugar-coat issues. It is very sad for the Leader of the Majority Party, who is my very good friend to say he was annoyed and not even surprised when he saw His Excellency Kalonzo Musyoka escorting Hon. Charity Ngilu to court. He cannot be part of the people who are dividing our Kamba people. That statement from Hon. Duale is not acceptable in Ukambani. We need unity in the country, in Ukambani, Garissa, Kisumu and everywhere else. As the Leader of the Majority Party, that was a slip of the tongue. It is very bad and we do not take it lightly in Ukambani. This is a very good Bill, but it is coming at the wrong time. We are very good in reacting to situations rather than being proactive. This Bill should have come before my good friend, the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs, went ahead and removed Mr. Matemu who also comes from Ukambani from his position at the EACC. This Bill would have been very welcome, but it is apparent that we are trying to sugar-coat situations. This is the same reason we are saying you are misadvising the President - he is the President for all Kenyans. Let the Leader of the Majority Party not lie to us that the President belongs to the Jubilee Coalition. The war on corruption should not be politicised or ethnicised. Increasing the number of members of the Commission from three to five is good, but what about the timing?"
