"content": "I want to specifically state that the scientific identification by DNA is a welcomed technological innovation that will help to solve a lot of problems. DNA attempted or nearly solved the case that we were investigating in Pumwani Maternity Hospital. To date, we have not able to see the twins dead or alive. With DNA, we are able to say that those children are somewhere. This is because all the bodies that were removed from the ward on that particular date went through DNA testing and were identified. None of the children that were identified through DNA--- The margin of error in DNA is so small that we are almost definite that all the children that were tested for DNA did not show that they belong to the family that was looking for their lost children. Therefore, if those children were not present among the dead bodies that were shown, they must be alive somewhere. This is one of the important findings from the results of the DNA. I am sure that the DNA will assist us to resolve some of these rampant cases. We know of a case which happened last week in Nakuru. A child was taken away by somebody, but there was a dispute about whose child that was. DNA is the only option that could resolve this issue. Mr. Temporary speaker, Sir, in investigating this case, we formed an opinion and we were convinced that the children were actually taken away illegally from Pumwani Maternity Hospital. It was also the finding of the Committee that because these children were not among the dead children, then they must be alive somewhere. So, the Committee made a recommendation that a criminal activity occurred in Pumwani Maternity Hospital and suggested further investigation be instituted along the criminal line. This is the recommendation of the Committee. We brought this Report here for the Senators to make their recommendations in view of the information that we provided and, perhaps assist Pumwani Maternity Hospital and all other hospitals in ensuring that the rightful mothers go home with their rightful children throughout the country. I want to support this Motion and ask the Senators to give their recommendations. I hope they will support this Motion for posterity and the assistance of the mothers to make sure that they go home with their children. I beg to second."
