    "content": "synonymous with the value or esteem with which the ground is held by Kenyans. Therefore, in approving this Motion, we want to safeguard those structures in our country which have been synonymous with this country since Independence. We need to preserve it for future generations, like we are doing with the wildlife. Some animals are almost becoming extinct and our children will see them on YouTube because now we are digital and others will see them in books or they will just hear about them in stories, like we hear of the dinosaurs and the like. If we take action now and pass this Motion to preserve that ground like we are protecting lions, elephants, giraffes and other wildlife for future generations, it will be very important for future generations. For example, the children visiting this august House now will go to places like museums and Uhuru Gardens, but their itinerary may also include a visit to Kamukunji Grounds to see where the birth of this nation was crafted by our forefathers. So, I urge my colleagues in this House to pass this Motion and we enact a law to give the ground the protection it deserves as a national monument. I thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I support."
