I move on to the next point that has raised temperatures, namely, corruption. It must be fought tirelessly. There is absolutely no reason why we should not talk about selective justice in regards to corruption. The EACC is the institution which is charged with this. If it is not strong enough, we must strengthen it such that it will fight corruption in accordance with the law. The office of the DPP is mandated to prosecute cases of corruption relentlessly. We support the President in this.

It is a polite request, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Thank you very much. The rain is not likely to be sufficient. It is vitally important that we call upon the Government to ensure that we have sufficient food for the entire country. We are in the arid and semi-arid areas which will not have sufficient food. So, we are calling upon the Government to work tirelessly on this to ensure that we are well fed.

Secondly, rivers are drying up across the country, including rivers in my constituency. Water is in acute shortage. This must be drawn into the Government agenda. As we go through the drought, citizens should be given enough water both for their use and their livestock. Otherwise, Kenyans will be impoverished.

to congratulate Mr. Mutyambai. I believe, and reading the mood of the House, he is going to be approved. However, let me begin by giving my accolades to the outgoing IG, Bw ana Joseph Boinnet, for the excellent job done. I think with any reservation he has delivered what this House approved him to deliver. Wherever he goes, and whatever service he will give to the country, we wish him the best. As Mr. Mutyambai comes in, we urge him to take this job with the nobility and importance it deserves. He is now ascending to the apex of the ...
