John Owino","speaker":{"id":13292,"legal_name":"John Walter Owino","slug":"john-walter-owino-2"},"content":"I rise to support the appointment of Major Twalib Mbarak who, according to his biography, has all the qualifications and experience to help eradicate corruption in this country. He comes from a very humble background and has been well trained; rising through the ranks in different Government security agencies, including the former KACC; to be where he is today without a godfather. I understand the Major resigned from KACC when he realised that the then leadership at KACC did not have the zeal to fight corruption. Major Twalib who is coming from a minority tribe will fight corruption without political interferences which is normally a big hindrance in our country. I have personally worked with Major Twalib Mbarak in a private security industry and I have known him as a person of high integrity. I request Hon. Members and Kenyans at large to give him a chance to help eradicate corruption."}
