    "content": "so doing, he will have encouraged them to work harder. They will be motivated to support this economy and even be tax compliant like we have been doing in the past. We will appreciate that when people work hard, they are recognised and supported by the Government. My colleagues have talked about the Ethics and Anti- Corruption Commission (EACC). They need to be careful in future, because the way they have handled prosecutions has not gone down very well with a majority of people. There are people whose careers have been destroyed just because of their actions. Take an example of what happened to Hon. Waiguru. I do not think it was fair and in order to take the cameras to her compound. If they were doing investigations, they would have done it with decorum and in a fairer way with a human face so that she is not embarrassed. Next time she will buy a small car, everybody will say that the money she used belongs to them. I do not think that is fair. Everybody is innocent until proven guilty. The EACC must be the one to lead by example; by ensuring that people are treated fairly and are not condemned before the cameras or by the media before they are heard. In the interest of time, and I can see Nyar Suba waiting to speak, I support and appreciate the nominees who have been given the opportunity to serve, including the Permanent Secretaries. One of them is from my region. She is called Susan Muchache. She is a very qualified young person. I am happy that the President has recognised the youth this time round, but we are asking him to do a lot more so that the youth can also feel that they are part of this system. She is one of the most competent ladies from my constituency and we will all support her. Thank you for giving me the opportunity, I support."
