    "content": "Madam Deputy Speaker, Sen. Haji was a great man. He is somebody that we will never forget, and he is somebody that this country will never get. One of his attributes as far as Government is concerned is that he has never gone against the Government. I remember that he used to call me intal gudah, which in my language means “ msichana mkubwa”. This clearly means that he respected authority. I remember he discussed the Building Bridges Initiative (BII) with me in confidence before he was taken ill and went to Turkey. I will, however, not say it here. I have shared it with the relevant authority. As a country, we must do something in remembrance and honour of Sen. Yusuf Haji. Finally, I know that a lot is going to happen as far as the North Eastern region is concerned. Sen. Haji stood for almost everybody, especially for Northern Kenya. He had a lot of respect for everybody. Even when he was sick during the debate on the revenue sharing formula, he would call me and say: “Fatuma, if you tell me to come, I will come,” yet he was sick. He was that kind of a person. Let me not take a lot of time. I have lost a friend, a father, and a mentor. As Muslims say, let the Almighty God grant him Jannatul Firdaus. Thank you."
