    "content": "to support it for all the good and deserved reasons, but amongst them, I support it because of my brother who was called Moses Mwani. Moses Mwani from Shinyalu was working with the Teachers Service Commission (TSC). On that fateful day, he was a victim and we buried him home in Kakamega. I also support it because of Juma Kwayera from Malava Constituency. He is a renowned journalist in this country whose face was damaged by the scrap nails from the bomb blast. So that Sen. Kavindu Muthama knows the seriousness and the import of her good industry, I have a message from Juma Kwayera on my phone, which he dropped last night. He asked me to thank you and rise in support of this Motion, just to remember that his face was damaged during the incident. Madam Temporary Speaker, I also want to use this opportunity to express my oral tribute to two groups of people. The first one is the team that was led by my lecturer of medicine at the University of Nairobi, Prof. David Ndetei, who went a step further to do a study on all the women who were within the vicinity of the disaster while pregnant. They came up with what has stood out in medical journals over the years as a masterpiece. They were able to establish a correlation between mothers who were pregnant at that time and children who at that time were in intrauterine. When they were born, it was established that they had negative experience. Therefore, because doctors rarely have this kind of treatise, allow me to read the names of the team: 1. Prof. David Ndetei 6. Margaret Isakwa 2. Ruth E. Rono 7. Judy Mwangi 3. Susan Mwangi 8. Anthony Kamau 4. Benson Ototo 9. Caleb Othieno 5. Jael Alaro 10. Victoria Mutiso I celebrate them. The work of medicine is now in the Annals of the World Journal of Psychiatry. The next challenge, Sen. Kavindu Muthama, will be for you to receive the names of bona fide victims. Do not rely on just appearances. Use the robust secretariat of the Senate that we have to go and extract genuine information. All these women are documented in the study. Madam Temporary Speaker, the second group I want to pass my oral tribute to is the Israel Defence Forces (IDF). The Army flew all the way from Tel Aviv to Nairobi, something that no other army of the world did and they were able to help. We all know that Kenya is the big brother in the East African Community (EAC). I therefore urge Sen. Kavindu Muthama, thanks to the East African Legislative Assembly (EALA), through EALA, go and take the names of the victims in Dar es Salaam because it was a twin bomb blasts that took place the same day and the same hour, separated by only a few minutes. They are just as aggrieved. When you appear before the US Government, be the big brother that we are in East Africa. You will be a bigger voice speaking on behalf of the people of Kenya and also the people of Tanzania."
