    "content": " Thank you Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I want to thank Hon. Junet for bringing up this matter. In fact, I had already written a letter that was to come to your attention. The issues that have been raised are serious. The other day, there was an incident of a friend whose child was going to Australia and they had transferred money from their company account into their personal account that they were using to acquire visas. When they got visas, this person went to the bank to access the money to pay fees since they were travelling the following day. They could not access the money and they were running out of time simply because of those circulars. Kenyans are suffering. We are now back to mattress banking. It is time, Hon. Speaker, you made a decision to guide us. As the Leader of the Majority Party has said, we have no personal interests. We are representing the people who sent us to this House. If they are suffering, we have to air their views. The Governor of CBK is known to be a person - although you said we should not discuss personalities but on this one, we cannot avoid it - who is not an investor. I do not think he even has a bank account. I do not think he does any Mpesa transactions. If he lives on only Kshs300 a day, he is not the right person to sit where the business of this country is transacted. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
