    "content": "We have gone into a popularity spree of saying that people are taking sacks of bags to churches and yet those who are claiming so should carry theirs in paper bags or wallets because the church cannot refuse to take it. The way to fight corruption is through this Bill. Even if we have fought corruption through social media avenues, media avenues and lifestyle audit, we still had the Goldenberg Scandal, the Anglo-Leasing Scandal, the National Youth Service (NYS) Scandals 1 and 2, and the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF) Scandal. There is still a lot of corruption which is going on in our country. We have not succeeded in fighting corruption. That is why I am saying that it is good for this House to enact this proper legislative framework for us to deter those who are involved in corruption. That is why I am saying Hon. Tonui got me wrong. I am not saying it is not wrong to fundraise. I said that fighting it by banning fundraising will not assist us to fight corruption. Claiming that people carry money in sacks does not assist us in fighting corruption. What will assist us in fighting corruption is to enact and amend this law."
