    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, despite the major opposition from many people in the Executive, I would like to say, to this day, I am very grateful to Mzee Kibaki because he signed that legislation into an Act of Parliament although it has not been enacted to date. In the memory of Mzee Kibaki, I would call upon that law to be enacted so that we can have price controls on unga, rice and cooking fat, so that every Kenyan can feed. Some of us do not believe that we should be in a country where some people go hungry when others are throwing food into the dustbins. I would like to say that is one of the things that I feel should be done in the memory of Mzee Kibaki; enacting that law which he signed. There is a lot that we can learn from Mzee Kibaki, some of us who have had time to share with him personally and also as our leader. I want to tell the family of Mzee Kibaki that what has happened is a natural thing. God is the one who actually decides when we are in this world and we shall leave this world. I take this opportunity to send my condolences to the family, to the children starting with Judy, Jimmy, David, and Tony. As the Senator for Nyeri County and whatever else I will become tomorrow they can rest assured that they will always have me to do all that should be done when they need my service. May the soul of our Mzee rest in peace among the angels of heaven. Thank you."
