"content": "Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity. I take this opportunity to join you on behalf of my family and the people of Vihiga County, who I represent in this august House, to convey my heartfelt condolences to the family of our departed colleague, Mr. William Kamoti, the people of Rabai who elected him to the National Assembly and the people of Kilifi, the county where he came from. I knew Hon. Kamoti when he was elected to the National Assembly in 2013. I fully agree with you that this was a very humble, quiet, non-controversial gentleman who was a very active member of parliament. It is very sad that he met his death on the day that he had been cleared by the IEBC to defend his seat for the third time. Hon. Kamoti was a Member of my political coalition Azimio and a Member of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party. He is one of the Members that we were almost sure we were getting the seat. It is very sad that we have lost a good leader; a patriot. On my own behalf and that of the people of Vihiga County, we say; pole to the people of Rabai and pray that the Almighty God rest his soul in peace and we pray that they will be able to get a good replacement; a gentleman or lady who will fit into those big shoes of this good lawyer who left us at a very critical time. May Almighty God rest his soul in eternal peace."
