    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I join you in welcoming the visiting Hon. Members from the County Assembly of Kilifi who are in this House for an important exercise of public inquiry or hearings on the unfortunate happenings at Shakahola that one of the Committees of this House is undertaking. I hope that these local leaders will be able to give proper perspective from the local community on where the misses were and how one of the worst tragedies of this nature to ever befall this country happened. It would be important to get their views on who they strongly feel let this country down. The last I saw in the news; we were drawing close to 400 lives that were lost. It is unfathomable that such massive loss of life can happen in our country with so many Government agencies present in Kilifi County. Therefore, it will be good to hear their perspective and presentation before the Committee and all that they wish to be done so that this never happens again in our country. I welcome the Members from the County Assembly of Kilifi. I wish them a fruitful stay. May we benefit from their knowledge and insight into this particular unfortunate incident."
