"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I rise to second the idea and the brilliant Motion that has been brought by my colleague, whom I respect very much. I agree with the adjournment that is seeking to amend this Motion. About a month ago, I received a telephone call in my office from a gentleman who comes from Tana River County, Garsen Constituency. He informed me that victims of the bomb blast had been asked to get in touch with their Senators so that Senators can create a list in order to make a follow-up for them to be compensated because they had not received anything. I then looked at the Order Paper and saw Sen. Kavindu Muthama’s Motion, which had not been debated. It has been there for a long time and I connected the two. So, I purposed to support this Motion when it comes before the House because the victims are not just people from Nairobi City or Machakos counties. The affected people include people from Tana River County. They were here in Nairobi City looking for jobs, working in offices and walking along the streets for leisure. The people from various counties got affected and this Motion affects all of us. Therefore, it is a good move today to second this idea that has come. The 7th August, 1998 will remain a big memory in the minds of many Kenyans who saw what happened that day, watched on television, heard the cries and felt the pain of those who lost their loved ones. The American Government deployed 900 Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents. It was the biggest deployment of FBI outside America since the World Wars. They came here and combed every piece of evidence."
