    "content": "country. We must support His Excellency the President in his call that it shall be business unusual. If we continue carrying on our business as usual, we will lose in this fight against corruption. Therefore, I urge Members to support this amendment to include the EACC as part of the investigations and ensure that all our investigative agencies are involved. I wish the Report had also recommended a look into our judicial system. If you clearly scrutinise the transactions around this matter, the judicial process in this country has grossly been misused. Those who sit in the Committee will tell you. Some of these payments have emanated from some court orders and issues that people have fixed in court. If we are to deal with the cancer of corruption, it cannot just be corruption in the Government or in the Executive, but it must also go to the Judiciary. I was looking at a point where probably the Departmental Committee on Lands should also have had the recommendation to look at the possible collusion. I have seen possible collusion between Government officers, the NLC and the cartels. There should also be a recommendation - and I hope the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Lands is listening to that - on the possible collusion between judicial officers and corruption cartels. With that, I beg to move and ask the Member for Tharaka, my neighbour here, to second. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
