    "content": "Magistrates Vetting Board have worked beyond what was intended. What has happened as we sit now is that we have another breed of judges and magistrates who are more corrupt. I wish this country can go back to 2002 when the National Rainbow Coalition (NARC) took the leadership of this country. Kenya was a united country. Hon. Deputy Speaker, there is a new need for this country to start afresh. We may have that to go through a national leaders’ conference, collapse parties, the Executive and the Judiciary. We need to rethink and re-examine ourselves as a nation in terms of what is ailing us. We should be truthful to ourselves. Unless we do so, this country is heading into a very serious crisis. The fact that Uganda does not want to use Kenya for her pipeline speaks volumes for us to understand that as a country, we are facing a crisis. The level of trust in our institutions is very low. Today, there is a problem in the Judiciary, in the Executive and even in Parliament. We are in a serious crisis. We can extend this time as requested, but let me hope that no extra funds will be used. They are saying no extra funds will be used, but to me, extra funds will be used. If we do no pass it this month, it will go to next month which means that it will interfere with the Budget for the next Financial Year. Therefore, extra funds will be required. They were given money to finish their time as scheduled. If you are extending time, then there must be money for them to use. Where will that money come from? Was it accounted for? Did we anticipate that they will have an extension and factored those funds in the Budget? More funds will be required. I support this, but as a nation, there is need for us to think as one Kenya. We do not even need to think about parties. I wish the country will be renewed. I urge the leadership of this country, especially the Head of State, to lead from the front, so that we can move forward. So much is happening and there is much dissatisfaction. You find that young boys and girls are praising corruption. They do not care how you have acquired your wealth, whether you have killed or robbed somebody, but they just want to acquire wealth. We have glorified wealth for the sake of it and not glorifying hard word. Yes, wealth can be created by hard work. With those few remarks, I support."
