    "content": "Yes, I mean illicit brew. It has been a trend in this country where people steal money and go to hide it in different countries. That is what we call money laundering. It has been happening and it is true. Despite having the EACC, corruption levels are very high. You know what happened a few months ago when we changed the system. But corruption levels are still high. How can a corrupt person who has been working in the Government be elected as a governor today? Look at what has been happening in Mombasa, where the Government has been destroying illegal sugar and other corrupt deals that have been going on there. If this country had a different system other than the EACC to deal with this problem, this thing would have come to an end. We have lost many Kenyans because of cattle rustling. You find brothers killing each other. That is happening especially in the Rift Valley region, where cattle rustling is a very big problem. I support the Petition because that has to stop. That is because tribes have been rising against each other because of cattle rustling. Some of them are senior people in this Government and they are the warlords there. Thank you for the chance. I support that Petition."
