    "content": "In Parliament, the late Hon. Francis Munyua Waititu, MP, was a devoted Member of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock, Select Committee on Catering and Health Club, which is the predecessor of the Select Committee on Members‟ Services and Facilities, and the Select Committee on Implementation. He was instrumental in the establishment of the Coffee Cherry Advance Revolving Fund by His Excellency the President during the 124th Session of the International Coffee Council in Nairobi in March, 2019. He consistently supported legislation geared towards the improvement of the agricultural sector and ease of doing business in Kenya, as exemplified by the Law of Contract (Amendment) Bill, which he sponsored in 2019. Hon. Francis Munyua Waititu relentlessly worked for his constituents. He will be remembered for championing matters on education and socioeconomic development of his constituents and the country at large, as seen in his Motions, Questions and Petitions that he sponsored. On behalf of Senators and the staff of the Senate, and my own behalf, I take this opportunity to condole with the family of the late Hon. Francis Munyua Waititu, Members of the National Assembly, the people of Juja Constituency and all his friends in this most difficult time. The Parliament of Kenya has lost a diligent leader. Hon. Senators, in honor of our departed colleague, I request that, in the usual tradition, we all stand and observe a moment of silence. May his soul rest in eternal peace."
