    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Before I comment on the Building Surveyors Bill, I would like to take this opportunity to just join my colleagues and the people of Kitui West to pass my heartfelt condolences to the family and the people of Kitui for the loss of Hon. Nyenze. This is a very painful loss. We knew Hon. Nyenze as a very vibrant and articulate person. He was a man of leadership qualities in the last Parliament. He had done his best to represent the people of Kitui West as well as his party, being the Leader of the Minority Party in this House in the last Parliament. We have a lot to learn from what he was doing here as a leader. This is a very great loss and on behalf of my family and the people of Samburu North, I pass condolences and say that we, his former colleagues, are actually with the family. We grieve with the family and pray that they get strength during this trying time. We cannot do much, but we pray for them that God condoles them and gives them the strength to go through this trying moment in their lives. Secondly, I am also very grateful for the opportunity the people of Samburu North have given me as a second term Member of Parliament. It was so gruelling to go through the last election and campaigns, but with their trust and confidence, they gave me an opportunity to serve again in this House for the second time. I assure them that during these five years, I will endeavour to do more than what I did last time to ensure that equity prevails in that particular constituency. It is a cosmopolitan constituency and we have already started trying to ensure that every single interest group in Samburu North will enjoy the very few and sparing resources that are available at our disposal. We ensure that they all gain from our wealth of experience of distributing resources equitably for the benefit and the welfare of our people in the north. Thirdly, I support the Building Surveyors Bill. It has come at the right time. Many of my colleagues have already spoken about it, but I want to add my voice and say that we have a problem because of the many mushrooming buildings which are coming up and which are not being taken care of. However, in the advent of country governments and resources being The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
