"content": "Regarding the Petition by our friend Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo, it will be criminal for any Senator not to support this petition. The former councilors, including the Chairman of this forum whom I know very well because he is from my county, are people whom we have struggled with against dictatorship in this country. These are people who have walked with us during the difficult days of the struggle for democratization of this country. These are people who have played a great role in the grassroots development of this country. Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is a shame that so many years after Independence, Mau Mau are being paid and recognized. There is a monument being erected at Uhuru Park, but we are quickly forgetting the people we were struggling with only yesterday. I have met many of these councillors and they are actually leaving in squalor, many of them are old"
