    "content": "He was also jovial in a way. There is one joke he kept telling us about the time he was accused of having frequented Koinange Street. He went for the campaign in his constituency and knew that his days were over because that was the main accusation flying around. Then somebody just stood up and said, “Jakoyo is the man because he is not running after men, he is running after women, so he is not a gay”. That changed the mood and he made it back to Parliament. He kept on telling that joke. He had his own way of making the joke and in the process, he would make us laugh in the Members’ Lounge. After he left Parliament, I interacted with him several times and he had remained hopeful and always encouraging those of us who were his friends. May his soul rest in eternal peace."
