"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to also contribute to this important Bill about bribery. Bribery and corruption have paralysed this country very much. When you go to hospitals, you do not get free services. You must give something to get services quickly. When you are on the road, sometimes you overspeed and you have to give something to the police to be let free. I support this Bill very much. Measures should be put in place to prevent bribery. This Bill provides for the giver to be penalised, although sometimes, one is forced to do so. For example, you may be looking for a passport and there is no way out, but to give something. We have to put it here that if you are forced to bribe, then you have to report this to the authorities, so that they know that you were forced to do so. We have many forms of bribery one being in employment. For example, in our counties, there are very many job opportunities, but you cannot get them for free. Most people in the counties have sold their land to secure jobs in the county. This is a problem which we need to solve and prevent. I support this Bill."
