This last part of our calendar will run for a period of one month from today, Tuesday, 3rd November, 2020 to Thursday, 3rd December, 2020. I hope you had time to reflect with your families and constituents. Hon. Senators, as we return from recess, let us remember that COVID-19 continues to pose serious health challenges to all of us. As you know, this scourge has affected and made an impact on each and everyone of us in one way or another. During the recess period, it hit close home where we lost one of our Secretariat Officers in the Directorate of Serjeant-at-Arms, the late Philemon Okinda. Our Secretariat has gone above the call of duty to ensure that we are adequately facilitated to execute our constitutional mandate. I take this opportunity to commiserate with the late Okinda’s family and the larger Parliament fraternity and appreciate our Secretariat for the efforts and sacrifices they make everyday for us and this nation. I will ask us to rise for one- minute silence in his remembrance."
