    "content": "here. We recommend the EACC to do something about this but it is like we are joking. It is like we have not got it. The country has poverty. We cannot afford to have any more corruption. People cannot afford to bury their dead, get medical care and feed their children. People have communicable diseases because of failures in various areas. This morning, we were discussing whether we are coping with some of the things that are going wrong in this country. We have so much road carnage and cholera outbreak. All these are because we are not fighting corruption. When people start working for Government entities like the State corporations, we reward those who are politically correct but they are not correct for the job. I honestly feel that it is time for us to be sincere about whether we care about sustainable Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) No. 1, which is fighting poverty, Vision 2030 or Agenda 63. As a country, we do not show that we care. When I look at all the money that is lost here – I hear of the public and fellow male Members of Parliament talk about women coming at a very high cost – it will cost about Kshs200 million. We are losing money and nobody cares. The National Land Commission and the CS, Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning have to issue title deeds. Where titles do not exist, it is important we go back and arrest people."
