    "content": "Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Five years ago when my Public Accounts Committee in the National Assembly was investigating a scandal involving printing of Kenya currency by De la Rue, we did extensive investigations and I want to reveal here that in the confidentiality of the investigations, the designs that the Chairman is talking about were given to me. If you were to ask me, I have seen the designs for Kshs100, Kshs500, Kshs1,000 and Kshs200,000. They are there and they are finished. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, what is missing are two things. May be the Chairman could tell us whether that is the reason. First is that, the lucrative tender of printing currency is the reason why there is competition and people do not want to miss out on that lucrative tender. Could he clarify? Secondly, there is no goodwill on the part of one of the top leaders in the country because he and a group of people around him are priding in the fact that the photographs currently on the currency give them nostalgic moments when they look at it. Could he clarify if, indeed, these are not the reasons why our Constitution is being breached?"
