    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. I wish to join my colleagues in passing my condolences to the families of the children who passed on in an unfortunate circumstance, which has now become a game of ping pong. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you do appreciate that professionalism is lacking in most areas of our cadres in the society. Without throwing blame to the engineers, other professionals have issues. However, to pin the matter down to the issue here, the engineers and architects of Nairobi City Council who approved such drawings, should face murder charges similar to the Solai Dam issue. Secondly, they should not be granted bail. We know that bail is a constitutional right, but the court should take cognisance of certain considerations before it issues express bails. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you are a professor of law and you do appreciate that this is a tort of negligence and it is actionable. The irony of the law of insurance in relation to compensation of minors is that it is too small because of the notion of the law that the future of minors is not certain. That is the position of common law."
