    "content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, four weeks ago, I sought a Statement from the Leader of Majority Party regarding the fate of the 5,428 Mau Mau war veterans and their awards, but up to now I have not received any Statement. The Leader of Majority Party hand indicated that he would give a report in two weeks’ time. It is now four weeks since then but I do not know what is happening. Hon. Deputy Speaker, as you have noted, this is a very emotive issue. Last Friday, I attended the burial of one of the most respected Mau Mau war veterans. If this issue is not handled on time, we might have a situation similar to the one that happened in 2003, when a fellow by the name of Ato Lemma Ayanu was brought into the country from Ethiopia under the guise that he was the much respected Gen. Mathenge, whom I happen to share a name with. Since we do not want to have a repeat of such a thing, I would want the Leader of Majority Party, who is known to be very fast, to find out what is actually happening. I do not know what happened to him this time round. Thank you."
