    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to speak on this very important Motion. On the onset, it is clear to say that I support this Motion. In particular, it calls upon the national Government to comprehensively deal with the compensation of former detainees. I should add the words “comprehensively” and “expeditiously.” What is lacking there is the word “expeditiously.” I do not think that it is true that Sen. Khalwale had forgotten the name of his in-law who was the Attorney- General of the Republic of Kenya. What he had forgotten were the Attorney-General’s during the 1970s and 1980s. Those, he had forgotten. However, he had not forgotten the one who took command at the beginning of 1990s. I took command at the beginning of 1990s when most of the serious allegations had already taken place. In fact, it was said, at that time that I was appointed because of the very bad human rights record that Kenya had. I was appointed because of the very bad acts that had happened in gross violation of human rights during the 1970s and 1980s. Indeed, that became my focus."
