    "content": "Thank you very much, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to also add my voice to those of my colleagues. We are remembering a very dynamic person who came into the hands of his family in Elgeyo-Marakwet. He was a hope to his family. His father expressed how much hope they had in him. The fact that he was the only child, crushed that family when the loss of his life came stepping at their door. He was a hope for the parents, the community and also his little children who are now orphans and hopeless. He was also a hope to the sports fraternity in general particularly Uasin Gishu, which is the home of champions. So, many eyes were looking up to this person to mentor many into the athletic fraternity, let alone in Kenya but the whole world. He was also a hope and the future of Kipchoge who is the Marathon holder. Kipchoge will soon retire, and Kenya was in a very good position of having a replacer of Eliud Kipchoge. As a country, our hope has been thrashed, because we do not have a replacement that we are aware of to take over from Kipchoge. This should be an awakening situation for Kenya, as a country, to take sports very seriously. We should be investing more and have these professionals maybe train more about how to take care of themselves both financially and physically. Also, the kind of cars they drive should be safe such that they are reliable cars that can protect their lives. As a country, we should seriously look into the safety on our roads, so that not only these professionals, but every person and other professionals in Kenya because we have lost a lot of professional people through these black spots. This is because we are not careful even to mark those dark sports and make the users aware as to what is coming ahead of them. Also awakening in that, athletes should be watchful and take care of themselves because they are out there and there is a lot out of there that they should be watchful about. We are mourning a person we looked up to and our future for athletics. Thank you."
