    "content": "This is a very good Bill. It is a very small thing to say that when somebody is eaten by a shark, you compensate him. That is hardly much. The bigger devil is the inability for us to harness that massive, hundreds of billions of dollars’ worth of marine resources that are there for us. We would not be talking about any debts if only we managed it properly. We can only manage it properly by supporting, protecting and giving all the facilitation to our Kenyans living around there. Not me coming from Wajir, Garissa and going out there to do fishing. Or somebody coming from Kiambu, or you coming from Migori. No. It is those Bajunis, Mijikendas, and those who are there. That is why in this country we have historical injustices that do not just go back to when our land was taken away from us by the white folks. The most important thing that happened in the history of this country is the Mau Mau struggle. It was over land and resources. How come when we got our own independence, we forgot about the real Mau Mau and all the people of the mountain region? Not just for the few individuals owning big chunks of land and the rest of it, replacing the white settlers. We should go back and develop this fisheries sector for our Kenyan brothers and sisters who live in those regions."
