"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. First of all, poleni ndugu zetu kutoka kule Coast. This issue has been there for a long time. They suffer in the same way our brothers and sisters married at the border suffer. They have to prove many things. For instance, they are told to prove that they Kenyans, and the only proof is that you gave birth. They also want a certificate, and perhaps you met in a bush, loved each other, and made babies. And because many people do not go through the formal marriage process, the only proof is children, along with public acknowledgment. The chiefs know how these people started living together, their story, their history, and so, I want to thank the President for easing it."

"content": "Hon. Members, we will have to stop there. As many of you have said, I want to encourage you to eliminate statelessness in our country. There are people, even here in Kabete here, such as the Shona Community who came to Kenya from Zimbabwe, who remain stateless. They were given some recognition, which is very good, but we must eliminate statelessness. As African people, we must look at our history and remember. In the early 1900s, in Namibia, where Hon. Benja says he was an ambassador, the Germans issued licences to hunters. The licences read that you were free to shoot elephants, rhinos, lions, buffaloes and bushmen. The bushmen referred to were the Herero People. They were licenced to shoot them on sight. The same thing happened to other people elsewhere. As Africans, we must love each other regardless. Whether an African found himself here from Senegal, Sudan, Ethiopia, or anywhere else, they are our brothers and sisters. There is no right for them to be stateless. As Members of Parliament, you must live up to the billing. Young Hon. John Bwire has brought a Petition and the Petitions Committee should expedite it. These Pare elders have the same right as any one of us to be in this country and to enjoy the benefits of citizenship. Hon. John Bwire, you have a duty, together with the Parliamentary leadership... In fact, you should have a catalogue of all stateless communities in the country and put them in one basket. We encourage our President to accede to giving them citizenship all at once so that we eliminate The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
