    "content": "The embassy overtime has been dealing with an estate agent called “Coral Corporation”. He is not a valuer but an estate agent practicing in Tokyo. That estate agent, as late as October 2010, gave a figure of Japanese Yen 1.09 billion as a true value based on his opinion and experience as an estate agent. There is also another lawyer by the name Yanagawa. This lawyer gives the value as Japanese Yen 1.089 billion. There is an architect in the documents which were submitted by the Minister, who also cautioned the Ministry on the price. We do also have a Ministry official, Mr. Albert A. Musasia who had the following to say two years earlier: “The embassy has been cautioned that the property that is proposed for acquisition may have been over-valued at Japanese Yen 2 billion.” Those were the words of an official from the Ministry. When we asked the former ambassador, when he appeared before us, he made it very clear that the price was wrong. When we met Kenyans in Japan, they gave us evidence, which is contained here, to show that the price was wrong. We never came across any evidence submitted to us by the Ministry to show that any professional gave them the price that they bought the property for."
