    "content": "THAT, aware that the Kamukunji grounds is undoubtedly one of the most important public spaces in Kenya’s political history; further aware that it was here that our national leaders held ground-breaking political rallies that mobilized the masses in the struggle for freedom and independence from colonial rule; cognizant of the fact that for the last 40 years, the Kamukunji grounds have continued to play a significant role in the Kenyan peoples’ struggle for human rights and democracy, specifically the SabaSaba rally that brought an end to the one-party rule ushering in a new era of multi-party democracy; concerned that the historic ground has been forgotten and neglected yet the great men and women of this great nation suffered so that we could be free; this House resolves that the Government declares the Kamukunji grounds a protected national monument and a historic place of great importance and transforms it into a safe and liveable public space for present and future generations."
