    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for allowing me to add my voice to this dehumanising act that has been committed against Kenyans. Let me join other Members in empathizing with Kenyans who faced this atrocity of the highest order. We all agree that how this demolition was done was dehumanising, and executors committed atrocities of the highest order that we have never witnessed in the history of this country. If you look at the issue, we have been apportioning blame to very few people who are incapable of assigning land in any way, like the current Member of Parliament for Mavoko. We know it is the county government that gives absolutely everything. We know the county government gives approvals when you are constructing. Those issues started way back in 2013. We know those who were in the office then. There was the governor, Cabinet Secretary for Lands, Housing and Urban Development, and people in Government. Without even apportioning a lot of blame on the current leadership, we need to know how, when, and who executed this matter from the beginning. Without even answering many questions, we know the people who are supposed to answer the atrocity that the Mavoko people have gone through. I witnessed this matter because I had a relative who lived there. The students have been going to school there and are waiting for exams. We have to look for a way of relocating them to other schools. We have not even seen our President giving directives on how those people will be compensated or how those students whose school has already been demolished will sit for exams. What do you expect from parents who have invested in those students for almost eight years and watched their education go down the drain? You cannot expect that student to even sit for an exam and pass. This atrocity deserves the condemnation of the highest order."
