    "content": "In the last Parliament, we had the Solai ad hoc Committee. I am happy to note in the newspapers this morning that the judges agreed with the report that we submitted, that the owners of the Solai Dam have a case to answer. I was a Member of that Committee. I believe the distinguished Senators whom I have a lot of faith in, who have been tasked with the mandate to investigate the massacres and atrocities in Kilifi, are men of integrity who will assist this country move far. The challenge is ignorance, which I spoke about when I was making my contribution. Many of us are quite gullible because of poverty. This new opium of the masses just takes us into other areas where we become numb to the reality of things. I do hope that the Committee will look into this matter. This is something that I speak from my heart. This is highly commendable for the Senate, especially after we have made a few mistakes, in terms of things that we did to revenue to our counties. This is now an opportunity for us to redeem ourselves; go out there and really assist the people of Kilifi and to a larger extent, the people of Kenya. I really look forward to the recommendation that will be made and possibly prosecutions thereafter. Mr. Speaker, Sir, finally, I hope there will come a time when we shall be able to put a maximum number of people who will worship in a particular church. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
