    "content": "There are two ways of fighting corruption. One of the easiest ways is that those who are in offices and have the opportunity to appoint other Kenyans to serve must not allow suspects of corruption to be appointed. Recently, a suspect from Migori County who had embezzled Ksh2 billion was in the list of people named to be directors. That is not going on. The suggestion by the Senate Majority Leader that we should always look at evidence and the process will take donkey years. The courts have a backlog of cases and that will take forever. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in the interest of allowing other Members to say what they must because this is important, I propose that the Executive, both at the national and county levels, must ensure that those people they identify, nominate and appoint to positions of influence and service are clean, do not smell of corruption and have not been suspected of anything. Other people who have committed obvious crimes, of course, must go to jail."
