    "content": "good to enjoy our diversity but it must be enjoyed in the context of a singular nation that is in our hearts. You hear the problems we have in our universities in the counties. When we get to that level, we want to see ourselves as belonging to particular ethnic groups. That will not take Kenya far. We must maintain the vision of our forefathers. The Bill, in my view, should look a little further than just the Mausoleum of the late President Kenyatta, the founding father. We should broaden our outlook to include all the mausoleums of all other heroes, now and in the future. If we put the Kenyatta Mausoleum under the management of the National Museums and Heritage Board, we should do that for other mausoleums that are in existence. We know that there is Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Mausoleum in Kang’o Ka Jaramogi while Tom Mboya’s Mausoleum exists in Rusinga Island. Recently, we contributed some money for the Tom Mboya Mausoleum. That is the way to go. We should open all these mausoleums to the public so that we give appropriate reverence to people who have contributed significantly to our development. We must not only do that in the political arena but also look at all other arenas such as the social, athletics or the scientific arena. Even great academicians should be included in the same package. With that, I support this Bill."
