    "content": "interviewed said that they would want to get rich and they do not care whether through theft, they just want to get rich provided they are not caught. You also saw about 40 per cent of young people saying that in the coming elections, they will only vote for people who are going to pay them. They will not vote for free. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it tells you there is a huge problem and a decay in our moral fiber which, if not treated as a crisis, dealing with examination irregularities will be dealing with a symptom rather than addressing the underlying problem. We have seen in the last one week how people who God has been very graceful to and moved them from a low position - a salonist - to a big contractor executing tenders worth millions of shillings and keeping huge amounts of money in safes in their houses. They are tossing Kshs80 million to anyone who makes a call. These are the people that our young people are idolising. These are their heroes and they are the same people who will come back and buy votes and challenge those of us who spend all of our time in the House up to 6.30 p.m. so that we can do the legislative business. We will lose to people who spent most of their time looking for money because they have realized that what young people in this country want is money. They are not going to make the distinguished Speaker the next governor for Nandi County if he does not give them money. I wonder where the distinguished Senator and the current Chair will get enough money to bribe an entire county so that he is elected the governor. There is a big problem and it is important that we declare corruption a national crisis. This is an issue that should unite all of us whether we are in the opposition or the ruling coalition so that we find a way of dealing with it. I support."
