    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I want to take this opportunity to condole with the family of Sen. (Dr.) Kabaka and the people of Machakos. I do so on my own behalf, my family and the people of Migori. We, the people of Migori, had the misfortune of losing my predecessor and we had occasion to experience the sadness that engulfed Machakos. In such sad times, we recourse to God and one another, and we share this and all the grief. I want to say two things about Sen. (Dr.) Kabaka. He was a pompous person with very colourful language. Those who do not understand pomp and colorfulness will mistake it for arrogance. If you went beneath the veneer of Sen. (Dr.) Kabaka, he was a humble and loving person. Among the Senators who are here, in my view, if history is written, you will find that he will occupy one of the front chapters. Most of us will occupy the footnotes of that history because he earned it. He was a person who stood and fought for justice, particularly social justice. I am happy that Sen. (Dr.) Kabaka is not being cremated. There is a trend of people being cremated, and I almost got caught in that trend. There is this book in the Bible that talks about Lazarus. When the Lord went to look for him, He found the body of Lazarus and raised it. If Lazarus had been cremated, there would be no body to rise."
