• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: many victims. If we went into a competition of who is more of a victim in this country than the other, we will never finish that race because everybody is a victim of something. view
• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: In Nyeri County which I represent, and we have just finished debating the Heroes Bill, many of our heroes are heroes of the Mau Mau fighting. Some of them still live up to this date. Some of them also need the recognition that should have come with it. Some were worst hit like my grandfather who lost his land and everything and was never compensated. However, that is not the path that we want to take. We do not want to go into an argument over who is more of a victim than the other. There were victims in North ... view
• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: If you look at South Africa where we borrowed the TJRC from, you will find that they suffered during the apartheid era. Some were beneficiaries, some were perpetrators while others were victims of apartheid.

• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: As I wind up, I want to appreciate that this country and the National Assembly, in particular has a lot of work in terms of moving this country forward on matters of reconciliation. We need to continue voting for funds that allow the country to reconcile all the communities that live in it. There are very many scary incidents about our cohesion, reconciliation aspects, our own preparation and dealing with the truth. The debate that we are going to have as a result of amending this Bill will be very informative and helpful to the Kenyan people and very good ... view
• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: I beg to move this Bill again on behalf of my Chairman and on behalf of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs. I would like to request hon.
