    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for allowing me to contribute to this very important Motion. From the onset, I join my colleagues in condoling with the families and the nation on the loss of our gallant soldiers in the helicopter crash. While I condole with the families and relatives of all the ten soldiers who passed on, I want to single out General Ogolla. I watched the funeral service from the beginning to the end. What came out is that he was one of the best soldiers in this country. On behalf of the people of Sotik, I request that as part of honouring General Ogolla, one of the streets in Nairobi be named after him, so that he can remain part of our history. I had an opportunity to work closely with soldiers when I had a tour of duty in northern Kenya. I want to attest that they work in very difficult situations. You cannot understand what they go through out there. I have seen them, and I know what they go through. When the Member for Lamu East brings this very important Motion, I laud and thank her. The Motion is very timely. I also worked in West Africa, and I managed to visit those soldiers when they were on a mission in Sierra Leone and Liberia. The kind of honour they are given out there is unparalleled. In Liberia, for example, people talk about Kenyans not because of ambassadors, but because of the soldiers who worked there. They worked very well and served this country The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
