    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I begin by thanking Sen. Sakaja. This is the second Petition he is presenting this week as the Chairman of the Standing Committee on Labour and Social Welfare. The Petition he presented yesterday was thorough. On this particular one, they have demonstrated that they did a thorough job investigating the matter. I am sure that the petitioners will be happy that the Petition has been done justice. We thank Sen. Sakaja and the Standing Committee on Labour and Social Welfare for the good job. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a very sad story. Children in this country and everywhere are the same before the law and before God. Even street children must enjoy the same rights that any other children enjoy in this Republic. What was done by the County Government of Nakuru is to say the least, absurd. That they could go and dump street children so that they could look good to make Nakuru get the status of a city, is criminal and a sin before God and they should never be forgiven. I want to fully agree with the recommendations that have been made by the Committee that the culprits must bear personal responsibility. If we know the names as Sen. Sakaja has stated, the culprits must be brought to book and face the law as it is. It is a very sad story and we agree fully with the recommendation of the Committee that the Senate suspends making Nakuru a city until they demonstrate that indeed they are ready without doing the camouflages that they are doing. We support the Committee and I want to urge that the Senate adopts the recommendations of this Committee. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
