    "content": "you meet him, he would ask about the people in your constituency. He would always advise us in his Cabinet, especially when things were not going well. He would be interested in your affairs as a Cabinet Minister. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the late President Mwai Kibaki worked with passion, integrity and zeal in his career as a politician. As the President of the nation, he led the country in a way that exemplified true leadership. He gave all his energy. When he first became the President, he was in a wheelchair and he gave all his energy to serving the nation. He would be in his office to always conducting business. Many things can be said about the late President. A number of us will go on speaking about him. The Senate has now resolved that their condolences be recorded in honour of the departed President Mwai Kibaki as a selfless statesman, a national hero, an accomplished economist and a Member of Parliament for his contribution in nation building and Kenya’s economic development. I, therefore, urge Members to take up this opportunity to offer condolences not from ourselves, but also from our constituents in our counties. Mr. Speaker, Sir, on behalf of the people of West Pokot whom I represent, I give my condolences to the family and pray that God will rest his soul in eternal peace. I thank you. I move and ask Sen. Orengo, the Senate Minority Leader to second."
