    "content": "The whole world has its history. If you travel all over the world, people have statues. Kenyatta’s statue is there, but where is Mama Ngina’s. That is necessary because the role she played and the other wives he had is part of our history. We need to know more about our founding father. I want to add that it is not only Jomo Kenyatta’s mausoleum that we may have. We can have more. The names have been mentioned here, particularly the heroes of this country. We also have women who are heroes. That is why I mentioned the wives of the late President Kenyatta. We need to know more about them. But we have other women. We have Prof. Wangari Mathai. Even that is history of this country. We need a mausoleum for her and a statue. She is a significant person. We have many other women in this country who have passed on and played a great role in the history of this country. Those are part of memories. This is the history of our people and cultural heritage and it is preservation of a people’s culture. They are also part and parcel of our lives. We get a lot of inspiration from the people who have passed on. A lot of their work becomes part of the knowledge of the nation."
