"content": "Thank you, Sen. Wetangula. People should go there. The capital was moved to Nairobi from Machakos. People should go there and understand where this country has come from. I have been to the City Hall. The room in the middle was what was a Chamber - the ones you see in the movies - for people to have public debates. Public participation and debates in Nairobi used to happen in that Chamber. Now, they use it as a conference room. It is a conference room for the governor, which is an embarrassment. People are making money from tourists for old buildings all over the world and in all the cities. The church that is in Berlin that was bombed in the World War, nobody bothered to renovate it. It is there. You go and see it and you pay for it. We must celebrate our culture and history. Madam Deputy Speaker, I want to disclose to the house where the first President of the Republic used to go and rest. I know that house. It is there. It should be a cultural site, so that nobody ever sells it, demolishes it et cetera. I am aware that buildings in town, including Pioneer and Prudential buildings are owned by private citizens. Some of them are even Members of this House. Those are buildings that should belong to the State. They are buildings that should be protected like The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
