The petition is signed by ten citizens on behalf of 61,330 Mau Mau war veterans from all the counties of the Republic of Kenya. Among other prayers, the petitioners are praying that Parliament recognises their armed struggle for national liberation and Independence, and the struggle for more democratic space, popularly known as “the second liberation” through an Act of Parliament. Hon. Members, this petition stands committed to the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs for consideration. The Committee is requested to consider the petition and report its findings to the petitioners and the House, in accordance with Standing Order No.227 (2). I must hasten to add that the Committee also undertakes to hear the petitioners, with a view to taking into account their views. Thank you."
