    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I want to thank Hon. Machua from Kiambu for bringing this particular Motion to Parliament. First of all, I want to pass my condolences to the family of Grace Onyango, a remarkable trailblazer who had scored so many firsts in her political activities. Having grown up and gone to school in South Nyanza, I am proud of her achievements in Kisumu: first as a Mayor and later as a Member of Parliament. In fact, if you look at her record, you will see that she was a woman of high achievement. She was an incredible woman who was able to beat the odds at that particular moment. We are very grateful to her for setting the pace. As a progressive Member of this Parliament, I feel that we have not reached the full potential of our women as representatives and political leaders but we are thankful for what she has done and the memories she has left. This extraordinary smart woman has been able to put on record what women could do at that particular moment when there were so many obstacles for the ordinary women. I wish her family well and may she rest in peace."
