"content": "The corruption we see in FPE, we do not know whether it is within the headquarters here or it is down in the primary schools or at the county levels. We want to ensure and urge all those institutions and agencies that deal with corruption to deal with it. This dragon called corruption is swallowing and tainting this country, making it look useless. Even the watchdog committees which are supposed to be dealing with these issues sometimes get tainted because they are not dealing with this monster properly. We must rise up as a country and ensure the dragon of corruption in this country is killed completely, so that we do not make it a culture where if a certain Cabinet Secretary (CS) is corrupt, the Principal Secretary (PS) becomes corrupt, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) becomes corrupt and all the people down in the chain of command become corrupt. We cannot say that because the President is corrupt, the Deputy President has to be corrupt and all those under them will be corrupt. We also cannot say that this House is corrupt and, therefore, Members of Parliament should be corrupt and all those who are working under us should also be corrupt. We need to change this. We are people who can make changes in this country. Why can we not kill this dragon once and for all and forget it? Corruption is destroying this country completely. Every other day when you watch news, you will not see anything else. You will not see development issues. You only see that they were unearthing corruption in this Ministry and the previous day they were unearthing corruption in that other Ministry, Department or house. I do not know when we will be reading good news that happened in this country."
