    "content": " Thank you very much, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity that you have given me. I rise to support this Motion. We have done our part as a Parliament by passing the new Constitution. Kenyans did their part through the referendum by voting for the new Constitution. Therefore, we are in a new era. As lawmakers, we need to go and share with our people the fruit of this historic event. It is a blessing that this country has got a new Constitution. Therefore, we, as a law-making institution, must ensure that never again shall our country, under this new constitutional dispensation, see corruption. Never again shall our country see impunity. We want our nation to see unity, cohesion and ensure peace. The issue of zero-tolerance to the things that I have mentioned above should be matched with severe mechanisms and not zero-consequences like what we have been seeing in the past. When we go for the recess, I want the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance to release the CDF funds, so that we can use them during the recess. That is the only time the hon. Members can embark on the development of this country. With those few remarks, I support."
