    "content": "with our children and young ones, and tell them that even if they watch television, they should remember where they came from. They should remember that there is circumcision and when you are circumcised, this is how you behave. They should remember the good things about our tribes. They should remember about the brave people of old who helped to keep our communities as they are and the folklores that we had. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, as I finish, I urge the correct institutions, perhaps those institutions where Professor served, that, we need to have some of the books and works in a digital format, so that, they will never be forgotten and they can form part of our history. When you visit some of these museums here in Nairobi, they tell you about certain things, but these people of stature like Professor Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o should be celebrated in some of these important museums. They should be recorded as people who have made their contribution to this nation. They should be honoured even posthumously. I call upon the Government of Kenya to honour people like Professor Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o and others, even posthumously because they are deserving of national, East African and African recognition, for what they contributed in this life when they lived it. May God rest his soul in eternal peace. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply and pray that the putting of the Question be deferred to another date. Thank you."
