    "content": "I do not get the point of Hon. Midiwo when he says that as long as the secretariat of the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) is in place, then we have no business saying that we are fighting corruption. I do not see any relationship between the fight against corruption and Mr. Halakhe and Mr. Mubea. It is unfair to the two individuals to be subjected to such allegations every time we talk about corruption. The President enumerated what his Government is doing to fight corruption. We must always remember that corruption is not a Government preserve. It is about me and you. In fact, I can challenge the membership of this House for anyone to tell us that he has never corrupted. For a fact, 99.9 per cent or all of us have ever indulged in corruption. I bribed a police officer when I was overspeeding. If you tell me that anyone has the moral authority to point a finger against the other or an institution, he would be lying. Therefore, I agree completely with the President when he says that his Government has invested Kshs1.6 billion for interagencies to fight corruption. The Chief Justice and the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) have employed 90 state counsels to fight corruption."
