    "content": "first tremor, he told his children to wait for him to move some of the items from the house. As soon as he stepped out, it was a pancake collapse. He lost all his children. When that happened, I remember the President went there, together with the then Governor of Nairobi City County, Gov. Kidero and ordered that certain buildings which had been marked for demolition be brought down. The owner of that collapsed building owned another 20 in Mathare constituency. Up to date, all those building are still up. Only one has gone down, not through demolition, but it collapsed last week, making us lose more lives. We will be bringing to this House a special Motion to create an ad hoc Committee that will go around and ensure that that report is implemented. There are around 300 buildings in this city that are on riverbanks and, which have been built without following the building appropriate procedures. These should be demolished forthwith no matter the political cost. There is no political cost that is greater than the life of a Kenyan. We, as a Senate, must stand and make sure that all of those uninhabitable buildings in Nairobi are brought down in the soonest time possible. I will be looking for support from this House."
