"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to jog the memory of the Vice-President. In the NARC manifesto, we said that we would remember the heroes who struggled for Independence. The other time they brought an Ethiopian here by the name of Mr. Ayanu, alias Mathenge, and the Government spent a lot of money on him. What criteria was used to do this? Paul Ngei died the other day and a monument is being built for him. He spent most part of his life in Parliament here. Bildad Kaggia was buried the other day. We went with the President to his funeral. A monument has been built for him but when he was alive, nobody even cared to pay for his medical bills. It is a shame and the Vice-President needs to know that we are also heroes of the second liberation. What policy does the Government have at this eleventh hour, when they are playing on injury time, to deal with the issues of heroes of Independence?"
