"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, at that time we were asking the Government, that it cannot sit back and watch people like Matiba who helped us get the second liberation, who lost their wealth not because they were careless in their businesses, or less astute, but because they stood for this country. We saw his property being auctioned. We saw his hotels in South Coast, Naromoru and Nairobi being auctioned while we sat back and watched. I do not know whether those are historical injustices or those are things that we need to think about as leaders. We can now talk of the Limitation of Actions Act and say that they were delimited from claiming. What is going to happen to the likes of those heroes who should be inscribed in the history of this county languishing in poverty? Not the ones that Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale is talking about here, but people who knew what they wanted and people who did not wrong anybody. The only wrong they did was to stand up to for this nation. I want to submit that we have a duty as elected leaders to stand up for those people. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
