    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I have come in late but I wanted to come much earlier so that I can contribute as time is not on my side. I come from Trans Nzoia and as hon. Moroto has said, that is where injustice actually is still begging for solutions to the problems. There are people who were displaced during the clashes of 1991 to 1992 and they are still landless. I know of a case where 54 families were displaced and a Good Samaritan bought five acres for them, but these poor Kenyans have now multiplied; 1,000 families live on five acres. We want to know what really happened. In essence, this report hopefully will not be altered. As it was mentioned, we hope that the names will not be deleted, so that we know who did what at a certain time. As somebody mentioned, I think this reconciliation came from South Africa and they are now living in harmony. We hope what has been happening and what happened in the past will be forgotten after people know who did what. The people who are mentioned in this report, we want them to apologize and for those who have died, for example J. M. Kariuki who was killed, we do not know who killed him. Ouko, the great man of this country was murdered and to date we do not know who killed him, this has been mentioned here. I do hope that one day, through this report, we will get to know the truth. In a way, I support it because it will help us to heal these wounds. Also, in the past we have had reports that have been gathering dust on the shelves. It is good that this report has come to this House and I hope and pray that after this debate, it will be implemented to the letter and there will be no alteration whatsoever. Hon. Moroto says he is one of them and we also want him to explain what happened in Trans Nzoia because it is clear names have been mentioned and as Kenyans we have to take the bull by the horns and ask them to tell us what really happened. Lastly but not least, I do hope that this report is not altered and I am happy that the Leader of Majority Party is here. Please I want to repeat it once more, let us not alter the contents of this report. Some of us do not have it, and we wish to see the way it was. I support."
