"content": ", while eating and drinking whatever they were drinking. Those were the days when you would not need to use too much money to be elected. Hon. Oloo Aringo was also a visionary leader. Two things come to mind. Firstly, the citizens are able to get the excellent benefit of the National Government Constituency Development Fund (NG-CDF) courtesy of him. He designed the whole thing, and now it has been helpful to the entire country. Secondly, the idea of independence in Parliament's financial terms was actually the work of Hon. Oloo Aringo. Until then, Parliament was a mere appendage in financial terms to the Executive. But in his days, he also designed, importantly, what now we have done away with, the 8-4-4 system of education. For those of us who are the pioneers of the system, we thank him for many things. Indeed, if we look carefully at the education sector, we find that there was a lot of thinking that went into the 8-4-4 system and the design. We, as the constituents of Siaya, mourn Hon. Oloo Aringo, even as we mourn yet another gallant son, Willis Onyango, who was brutally murdered, and we will bury him this weekend. We pray that his soul may know eternal peace. Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker."
