    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Motion. Every Kenyan has fought for this country in one way or another. In Kenya, there are various categories of people who fought for Independence. There are also others who have contributed to the development of this country. There are many freedom fighters who have not yet been recognized. Many Kenyans suffered in the hands of the colonial Government and the post colonial Government. As I speak, in Tana River, there are various Government agencies, for example, KWS who are killing my people and no action is being taken. The jungle law is still being applied in Kenya to date. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, 20 people have died in Tana River since I became Senator. There is need for the Government to look into this situation. Every Kenyan should get equal consideration. It was not only Kenneth Matiba and the late Martin Shikuku. Many other Kenyans are still suffering in the hands of Government agencies. We should actually change the way this Government operates so that it may benefit all Kenyans. At the moment it appears that some Kenyans are not visible."
