Mavoko Member of Parliament Patrick Makau has called for a review of the law to provide stiffer punishment for people linked to corruption scandals.
The Wiper lawmaker says that the fight against corruption will be successful if the existing laws are reviewed.
He observed that the existing laws are not stiffer enough and have seen corruption thrive.
The MP noted that corruption suspects should be denied bond or cash bail and their assets frozen.
"Some of these people use the stolen money or its proceeds to buy their freedom in the name of bond or cash bail," said Makau as quoted by a local daily.
He also said that graft suspects must be forced to return all stolen money before the start of their trial or jail terms and noted that some suspects often invest using the stolen money as they fight court trial.
The MP also said that corruption convicts should be jailed for life or handed death sentence.
He warned that the country's development agenda is at risk if wanton corruption is not tamed.
President Uhuru Kenyatta is under pressure to take action against individuals and companies named and linked to the alleged fresh Sh9 Billion National Youth Service scam.
Public Service Principal Secretary Lilian Omollo and NYS Director General Richard Ndambiri stepped aside last week to pave way for investigation.
Investigators are also probing alleged loss of taxpayers money at the National Cereals and Produce Board (NCPB), Kenya Power and Lighting Company (KPLC) and the Youth Development Fund.
