    "content": "These are the deliberations of the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) meeting; they are very illuminating. The fight against corruption is serious. It is actually threatening to go down with every one of us. People do not have money in their pockets. Part of the problem of liquidly is because if you have Kshs1 million, you have to prove where you have gotten it from. People are failing to transact. In fact, the real estate bubble has burst. Madam Temporary Speaker, most malls are actually almost empty. People are not buying houses, land is not selling very first and you can see the number of auctions in our newspapers. I have also noted curiously that the number of foreigners on the streets of Nairobi City has reduced. There were so many wazungu around, but I no longer see them as much. It actually means that we were having an economy that was being fueled by corruption money. If that were not the case, how can we explain this shortfall? Part of it, of course, is because of the huge debt. If you steal a lot of money, then you distribute to the village."
