    "content": "doing for purposes of interrogating the Ruaraka Land Report. Whoever caused the Ruaraka Land Report not to be discussed has done a disservice to the Senate. After 30 days from today, when we resume, the thrust and speed that the Senate appear to gain will be lost and Kenyans will be wondering why the Senate did not debate the Ruaraka Land Repot after it was tabled by Sen. M. Kajwang'. There are many things that have happened today. One of them is that the Sugar Report has been rejected by the National Assembly. We should have shown what Parliament should do to people who steal or hide the truth instead of postponing the inevitable. I must express my disappointment because that was one of the worst decisions that Senate has ever made. If anybody thought that we will protect the people who were in that report, when it finally comes for debate, the issues that are there will still be there. So what was the point of postponing after we spent a lot of time to debate the report? The reason I am saying this and the reason I voted for this Bill is because I sat in the Committee that was investigating the Solai Dam issue and I know the sort of time that is put in ad hoc committees because you work within timelines. The sort of threats and intimidations that the Committee faced yet the report has seven signatures as opposed to five for the one on Solai Dam just shows the sort of commitment Senators made. Sen. (Prof.) Ongeri had to come from the hospital. In fact, he did not take his medicine only to come here and be disappointed. I must say we have failed ourselves on this last day. We have done something we should not have done. If I have offended anybody, I will apologise later. I thank you."
