"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Bill. I am also speaking as a member of the Parliamentary Select Committee on the Administration of Justice and Legal Affairs. We have actually also looked at this issue of the constitutional amendment and it is quite clear that the crisis that we are experiencing in this country, that requires the creation of a Special Tribunal, is a crisis that had affected this country way back in 1991. The impunity that we are talking about started way back in 1991 during the struggle to establish the multi-party system in this country. Some politicians in this country openly went out inciting Kenyans to cut--- Kenyans were flashing the two-finger salute. They were powerful people. They were not challenged and, on top of that, at the outcome of the 1992 elections, they found their way into high Government offices. That is the genesis that is very well captured in the Waki Report."
