Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it may be State sabotage. What I am saying is that if I heard the Minister very well, he said that the attack on The

was official. Could he elaborate that statement, so that we can understand how and why it was official? If it was official, why did the raiders go to the premises hooded? When our police officers go to an operation, they normally do so in their uniforms, so that they can be identified. In this case, why did the participants go to the premises of The Standard when they were hooded, if the exercise was, indeed, official?

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish to thank you for giving me this opportunity to contribute to the Report from the Departmental Committee on Administration April 4, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 409 of Justice and Legal Affairs on the International Federation of Women Lawyers (FIDA) nominee. First, I must thank the Committee for doing a very good job after having taken a very long time to search all over to find a qualified nominee for FIDA. For all that period, we have been complaining that these people do not have the qualifications. What we used to have in FIDA were ...

The first nominee was rejected because---

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, if indeed, we have to be fair, we still have to make some constitutional amendments. We still have to make amendments to the Anti- Corruption and Economic Crimes Act. If the Chairman truly believes that this Commission will be out to fight corruption in this country, it must show that they are indeed doing it. On several occasions many people have said that they do not have faith in this anti-corruption body led by Justice Ringera. Personally, I have sent cases to the KACC to investigate, but to date, no investigations have been done. I ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I used to have personal problems with FIDA a long time ago, but we sorted out that matter. Actually, it was a battle between me and them. Today, we do not hear them operating the way they used to do all over the country. I, personally, believe that those women are corrupt through and through!

What I am saying is that--- My personal observation is that those are what we can rate in Kenya as classical con women. They want to live through other people's sweat.
