    "content": "this 12th Parliament. The Bill sought to compel creditors to first realize the assets of the principal borrowers before proceeding to realize the assets of guarantors in cases of default by the principal borrowers of loans. Although the Bill did not obtain the requisite presidential assent, it nevertheless provided many insights into borrower-lender relations and related dynamics in the country. Hon. Members, you will agree with me that this nation has lost a progressive, trusted and devoted community leader whose actions reflected the interests of his constituents. On behalf of all Members and staff of the National Assembly and, indeed, on my own behalf, I wish to convey heartfelt condolences to the family of the late Hon. Francis Munyua Waititu, the people of Juja Constituency and all his relatives and friends during this difficult time of mourning. As the National Assembly, we assure the family of our support during this period of great sorrow. In this regard, Hon. Members, and in line with the Parliamentary Service Commission’s Bereavement Policy, I have constituted an Ad-Hoc Committee to help with the funeral arrangements. The Committee, which will be led by the Member for Kiambu Constituency, the Hon. Jude Kang’ethe Njomo, MP, will comprise the following other Members- 1. Hon. (Ms.) Wanjiku Kibe, MP; 2. Hon. Julius Melly, MP; 3. Hon. Gabriel Kago, MP; 4. Hon. Fabian Kyule Muli, MP; and, 5. Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah, MP. The Senate is to also nominate two Members to this Committee. May God rest his soul in eternal peace. Hon. Members, in tribute and honour to our departed colleague, the late Hon. Francis Munyua Waititu, MP, I request that we all stand to observe a moment of silence."
