"content": "Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. In the course of my being here, I worked closely with him and relied on him for guidance and grounding because each time, I felt that I now know it all or the Standing Orders are in my head, I looked at him as he sat there humbly. When I looked at his accomplishments both in family, career and in service to this nation, I always reminded myself, “Sen. Halake, you are a speck on a speck,” in comparison to the giants that are in this House. I am honoured and I celebrate his life. Most of all, I would like to thank his family, Mama Zainab and my sisters and brothers for giving him to us. It is a great sacrifice that he has accomplished so much because they must have supported him and they must have missed him a lot when he served all of us. Thank you. I celebrate my brother and look forward to making sure that his legacy of humility and leadership reigns, because he feared nothing. Fearless leadership will be taken forth by those of us that he leaves behind."
