"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, who told them to go and start curing the problem in Murang’a? Therefore, they should have, by virtue of that statement, returned the verdict that this particular charge of abuse of office and breaching the Constitution had been proved. I conclude by addressing the people of Murang’a. According to our Standing Orders, Standing Order No. 68 (6) provides that, when a matter like this is before this House, it can still be brought back after three months. I would like you to be on record so that we are not seen to be used to sanitize corruption in Murang’a County. However, we urge the County Assembly of Murang’a to bring back this matter in three months. When the matter comes, it is my submission that it should not be committed to any Committee. We want it to be handled in plenary, so that each and every one of us can fight corruption. How can we, as a Senate, pretend to sit on the high moral ground, asking President Uhuru to sack the Cabinet Secretary for Devolution and Planning, Mrs. Anne Waiguru, and then when somebody who is corrupt like this one comes here, we ask them to pull down the billboards? We are joking! We must fight corruption. Money that is being lost in Murang’a does not belong to an individual; it is taxpayers’ money."
