    "content": "something without caring that while they were driving at such speeds on the roads, they would cause unnecessary accidents. They ended up causing a very serious accident. An officer who was driving peacefully on the road was involved in a very serious accident. That is an arm of Government that is supposed to be helping the country in making sure our roads are safe. They are the ones now involved in causing mayhem on our roads. These are some of the things that we, as a people, must be looking at. We should not just blame the police without really looking into what is going on in other areas. So if we have to stop corruption, let us check our own selves and ensure that we know what we are doing about corruption. We might be involved in corruption in a small way but, remember that corruption could culminate into worse problems for our country. This is something that we, as the people of this country, should be looking at to ensure that this thing is stopped. Our President has been under siege on various issues in this country but at one time he asked what he can do as a person. Indeed, he was not giving up in ensuring that corruption ends in this country but he was only pleading with Kenyans that: “Please, help me to end corruption in this country.” It is something that is at runaway levels. We, as citizens of this country, let us come together and end this unnecessary corruption. For example, if you are in Nairobi and you go downtown you find that matatus have taken all the streets and they are driven in all directions. They have been licensed to do that. Nobody is bothered. If you ask the County Government of Nairobi City, nobody is prepared to tell you why matatus are doing whatever they are doing. Motorcycle riders are also causing similar mayhem. So, some of these are things that we as people of this country should sit down and evaluate what we are doing and what we are up to. With that, I am pleading with my colleagues in this House and Kenyans in general: Let us undertake whatever we are undertaking in this country in a manner that is peaceful, legal so that this country can prosper to our advantage. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
