    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this chance. As this matter is looked at, I would wish to say that there used to be stores where slaves were put before being shipped abroad during the old Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. These stores were called barracoons. Today, we have a group of people called agents. These are simply barracoons. What happens is that when these young Kenyans are sent to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, they are actually completely sold at a price. So if they have to come back, the agreement that they make between the agents and the people who take these children is breached. So, I wish that, as a Committee, we look at the types of agreements that are done between the agents and the people in Saudi Arabia, who are basically slave traders."
