"content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. America is a valuable friend of Kenya, the region and Africa. It is important that the Committee makes progress and talks to the ambassador as they promised. The ambassador should come clean on this issue. We do not expect USA to talk down at us - to wait when an African country does legislation – like Uganda – then they start doing the things they are doing. They have to be humane. In the public domain, I have seen a conversation starting to emerge to the effect that somebody is claiming some Kenyans were compensated. Those were the employees of the Embassy. We would like the humane side of the Americans to wake up, so that beyond the people who worked for them, they also address the people who got injured and lost lives when they were not employees of the Embassy. I am not a Member of this Committee. However, when the USA ambassador to Kenya comes, I will sit in this Committee and talk to him eye ball to eye ball to remind them that they cannot be talking down at us."
