"content": "The EACC is an institution that must be protected. It is not a person. When EACC becomes a person, then we have a problem. We have been to many countries including Malaysia. As APNAC, we are proud to say that we stopped the Prime Minister of Malaysia from opening a conference on corruption in Malaysia. It is there on record. If you go to Malaysia, we are celebrated for making that move. So, we must stand firm and say that EACC as an institution must be supported at all costs. The Report on the cemetery land brought out some very important facts and, as a result of that, five or seven years later, most of the culprits have been jailed, except one. That one was a Minister who was taking advantage of Parliament by saying that the matter was in court. The gentleman who was recorded as a person to answer was Hon. Mudavadi. He was adversely mentioned in that report. However, we are pleased to say that the majority of those conmen who stole money from Kenyans are behind bars, except one who goes round talking too much about corruption and yet, he is one of the suspects of corruption. We know where he took the money and the Barclays account he deposited it in. We know where it is. All this information was sought, found and confirmed by the EACC and the DCI. We must support the institutions and they must work with us. The fight against corruption must be fought The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
