    "content": "Many people in this country live in poverty. These are people whose families still suffer because they were freedom fighters. This House has never taken issue with their suffering. I want to persuade this House that somebody somewhere is sitting on this Motion. Perhaps I will bring it again, so that we can enforce it. There are people like the late Paul Ngei and others who even died in Uganda and their bodies were never brought here. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is good you have taken over the Chair and you are going to assist me. There is the issue of the Mau Mau freedom fighters, Dini ya Msambwa and many others, who should be compensated. There is fear in this country. People are wondering how they shall be compensated. As Members from all over this country, we know the people who participated in the fight for freedom. We know those who are still living and their families. With those few remarks, I want to support the Bill and express that it has taken us a long time to realise this."
