    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for recognising and giving me an opportunity to pass my condolences on the Floor of the House. First, let me thank you for coming to Siaya on Sunday during the funeral service of the General, plus many other colleagues who joined us including the leadership of the Majority and the Minority parties. We had the opportunity to say many things at the funeral. For now, when a person of this stature dies in the manner that General Ogolla died, some heads also need to roll. We are calling for a thorough investigation so that we can understand what happened. In the military, the Commander of the Air Force is somebody I believe is a culprit. If General Ogolla was a captain and a former Commander of the Air Force, how come he was allowed to fly a chopper that was faulty? This is something that we need to ask. Also, this House appropriates a lot of military resources, but the military ends up buying faulty choppers. This House and its Departmental Committees should investigate the Department of Defence. This department is corrupt but we never question them. The House must take this issue very seriously because the Chief of Defence Forces cannot be killed."
