"content": "Within the last five years or so, the public debt has risen in a manner you cannot imagine. The problem is that the justification we are given for this rise does not hold any water. You will read the Report and get shocked at the statistics. Without going into details, the fact of the matter is that this country has in the last few years engaged in a borrowing spree. This is a matter that needs to be addressed by this House in one way or another. I understand the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning is dealing with it. This matter should not be taken lightly. We need to understand the rational and what motivated the country to get into that kind of borrowing and the results because ultimately, it is the Kenyan taxpayer who will continue to shoulder this burden. This has been occasioned by decisions made by some mandarins seated in darkrooms somewhere."
