    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, for him to conspire with the Chief, a Deputy County Commissioner and a Commissioner to pay those people what he considered as pole --- You should have seen that gentleman when he sat here. He said he cares so much about the people of Solai. When he was asked whether he has ever gone there to say pole to them, he said he has lived with them and he was waiting for a Committee to tell him to go. Shame on you! This matter is so painful and it is sad. When you look at the recommendation that we have given, I hope that the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) will follow up and see the work that has been done by men and women integrity. They believe in two initials PI which stands for Preserving Integrity for the future of this nation. He will get to the bottom line of this. We can no longer protect anyone in this country. We have to give the 52 orphans of Solai a chance to live an adult life like we are living. Madam Temporary Speaker, finally, as I sit, we have made several recommendations. There is one which I want to emphasize on. It is imperative that complaints commissions or committees which are established under the Environmental Management and Co-ordination Act are devolved so that the people of Solai can report locally on any dangers or anything that can affect them. It is also important for this House to look at this Act and ensure that it is implemented to the letter as Sen. Sakaja and my very good able Chair, Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. said. Laws are there, but they are not implemented. The restoration order is clear. I urge this House to adopt this Report and push for this Act to be fully adhered to, so that the people of Solai can live a better life. They must be given a life. You cannot compensate me with Kshs50,000 after you have destroyed my livelihood. Shame on you! I hope this Report will go down in history as a Report that addressed the plight of Solai people. As I sit, this House will be remembered in the history as a House that fought for liberty of the poor people in this country."
