    "content": "professional, detailed and can do good work so that when we get these reports at the Senate level, our work can be made easy. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, corruption has caused the downfall of many countries. Venezuela was doing very well 20 years ago, but because of corruption, it has gone down. A report was done in the 1980s that picked out Nigeria, India and Brazil as one of the countries that could have attained industrialisation at the turn of the century. Nigeria was singled out because it has been blessed with so many natural resources. However, because of corruption, Nigeria never picked up. As we speak, Brazil is the manufacturer of Embraer planes because they fixed corruption issues. India produces the highest number of doctors in the world and is the Information Technology (IT) hub as we speak. However, Nigeria, because of corruption, never picked. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if we do not assist some of these counties in terms of ensuring that these incidents of corruption are dealt with, counties will never pick up. The development that the people of Kenya hoped to attain by devolving power and resources will never see the light of day. With those remarks, I support."
