    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I just wish to seek your permission to make a comment or two on this petition. The petition is perfectly before the House and I agree with your directive that the Committee works on it expeditiously. I want us to take notice of one or two things. Firstly, the Auditor-General, Mr. Edward Ouko, is my constituent and, therefore, I have an interest in this matter on that account only. This petition, even though I support that the Committee deals with it expeditiously, is coming at a time when we have had a lot of shenanigans surrounding the Office of the Auditor-General. I just pray and hope that this is not an extension of attempts that have been made out there to drag the Auditor-General out of office. You will recall that not long ago, the Auditor-General was subjected to investigations by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC), which submitted a report to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP). In line with the Constitution, the DPP, Mr. Tobiko, found that there was no merit."
