"content": " I want to eulogise General Ogolla and the gallant soldiers that we lost in that tragic accident. We should also learn lessons from it. This is not the only outdated and old aircraft that the Forces and other senior people in this country use. We should, therefore, not wait until we have another accident involving the forces or a senior Government official and then start looking startled. I believe that even the plane that is being used by the President, the Deputy President, and other senior people in the forces is outdated. Secondly, we lost those soldiers because of banditry issues. It is, therefore, the right time for the Government to crack this issue once and for all."

"content": "Many soldiers have died in the line of duty before that incident with General Ogolla and the other officers. In some countries, when officers go on missions and other men take their wives, such men are given heavy punishments by the courts. But here in Kenya, there is no such provision. The problems that our officers go through are shocking, and some remarks have been made by politicians in this country. I did not have any intention of neglecting the police in my Motion. In fact, the Special Forces are the police who have undergone specialised training. We want to show appreciation to those who work in the forests and stay there so that we can do our work."

"content": "Hon. Temporary Speaker, when I introduced this Motion in Parliament, the late General Ogolla was very happy. Several other senior military officers called me and appreciated the initiative. They said that the country was heading in the right direction because this Motion seeks to cater for their welfare. Some of them were grateful that someone appreciated their work. This Motion is a small initiative to promote the appreciation of the work that our KDF and Special Forces do. The things that are proposed in the Motion are happening elsewhere, like the United States of America, which, for example, has a military desk that is established in the airports to serve military officers just like diplomats and the United Nations (UN) staff. Finally, implementing this Motion does not require any funding from the Government and, therefore, is cost-free."
