    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to start by thanking all the Members who have contributed positively and favourably to this Motion. I also want to thank the Assistant Minister, Dr. Oburu Odinga, for putting up a brave fight and trying to defend the indefensible. It takes courage when you defend the indefensible. I think to that extent, we want to applaud him. He is our friend. He is a beneficiary of the CDF. This matter is not just an issue of semantics. It is not a matter of lingua. This is a fundamental issue. The amount of money we are talking about is money we have assessed for a long time. It is the amount of money we have discussed with the Minister. We are in agreement in terms of the balance. I am actually surprised that the Assistant Minister is denying in public what they have already confided to the Committee in private. The reason we brought this issue here seeking the resolution of the House is to ensure that this kind of double speak and contradiction, promising and never delivering must stop. I come from a culture of absolute honesty and sincerity and where men who are men speak their minds straight. They will then defend that position."
