    "content": "At the outset I would like to say that I agree with many of the recommendations of the Committee but I have a disagreement when it comes to generalizing certain issues specifically to Kenyatta University (KU) even though at some point there is reference to the fact that many of these issues touch across all universities. My other disagreement is that following from what Mr. Munya said, we also did not dig deep into the involvement of politicians and other hired thugs; especially politicians even from the current Parliament who took part in fanning the trouble that took place at the university. In fact, if you remember when I was commenting on the KU crisis, when we were giving a Ministerial Statement, I said that even hon. Members should be asked to contribute to covering the damage that was experienced. The damage was so much and because politicians were part of this, it was unfortunate to ask students to be the only ones paying for that damage. That was clearly saying that we also are to blame and I do not think it comes our strongly in this Report."
