"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the intellectual property of that song is for the community. You have heard of Mwanamberi, the intellectual property is the community. Nonetheless, Them Mushrooms have been enjoying from this. This is something we should think seriously about it. So that, we place the right of the community where it belongs. It did not just happen. Many days ago, a brilliant person must have come up with this song. However, because he passed on, that recognition should be there. Finally, we have great musicians who pass on. We should be told how families access whatever benefits that accrue long after Jacob Luseno and François Luambo Luanzo Makiadi is gone. Television stations are using these as promotional songs and make millions of money and nobody takes an account to find out. I know my young “daughter” here is a great musician. Not many of you might be knowing this. I was more comfortable with you when you were at “ Sauti Sol” than when you are in the Senate. Not because of the comparable performance, but because you have an impossible voice, a good voice. Intellectual property should be respected."
