    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, while accepting that a report of an accident involving an aircraft may take some time, I take note of the fact that during the last seven years, 283 persons have perished in Kenya Airways aircraft on roughly similar routes. The first one, as indicated by the Minister, occurred on 31st January, 2000, during which 159 people perished, many of whom were Kenyans. The last one occurred on 5th May, 2007, in which 114 passengers perished. Mr. Speaker, Sir, could the Minister confirm or deny that as we talk now very little of the accident investigation is going on because of the differences between the Kenya Government and the Cameroon Government, first, on where the Black Box is to be taken, as the Cameroon Government insists that it should go to France? Secondly, could he confirm that the manufacturers, M/s Boeing, of the ill-fated aircraft have withdrawn, and so have other stakeholders? Could he confirm that, indeed, the accident investigation is moving ahead, as he has specified today on the Floor of this House? The information that we have is that, indeed, very little is happening, and it may take another seven years."
