He served as a Member of Parliament for Kimilili Constituency when I was a Senator from 2013 to 2017. When I was Speaker of Nairobi City County, I recall that Hon. Murunga lost Simmers Club. It was the most famous club opposite 680 Hotel, where we would go to listen to Lingala music. As we send him off, we need to pray to God that his property will go back to his family.

We want to really celebrate him. We thank God for the years he gave Hon. Suleiman Murunga. May he rest in peace. As Nairobians, we are also celebrating the life of our real Gor Mahia player, Austin Oduor alias Makamu. Those were the real Gor Mahia players who played in the 80s, when we were very young. Umeme FC is where Austin’s talents were nurtured. The ghetto sports you see today by many of the young people is because of what Austin and others have done. I hope the Government is not just giving him the best in his burial but will also put in something in Ziwani for the young people to continue playing football. Football is what people understand in Nairobi, especially in all the ghettos. To the family of Austin…"
