"content": "voted for him - my dear sister, Sen. Seneta, who was nominated, and all of us, would come here and fight for Kenyans. However, I am disappointed because corruption is in our bones, all of us. None of us here can stand and say they are saints; we are all rotten. I want to apologize to Kenyans out there that we have failed them because when we had the opportunity to make sure that the children of Ruaraka get what is rightfully theirs, corruption penetrated deeply, and at the end of the day, we failed. People died in the Solai Dam tragedy and this House came up with serious recommendations. None of them has been implemented and, in fact, some people are bragging out there and saying: “Look at you. You fought so hard for the poor, yet you are toothless.” That is wrong and it has to change. Madam Temporary Speaker, we talk about the monitoring and evaluation kitty. If this House wants to make sure that we do our work of oversight, I have a Bill that I have introduced and is at the Second Reading stage; The County Oversight and Accountability Bill, 2018."
