    "content": "a man who did not want to lose his identity and religion. A number of us do not have the courage to say who we are or even to demonstrate where we worship, but Hon. Injendi was an outright person who demonstrated where his religion is. I had an encounter with Hon. Malulu Injendi when, as a member of the ICT Committee of the Senate, I was given an opportunity to attend a world forum in Vegas. There was a joint committee from the Senate and the National Assembly, and Mhe. Injendi was amongst the delegates from the National Assembly. He came out as a very caring legislator who ensured that all Members of the delegation were together in most of the activities that we undertook. I was very proud of him. He worked on a Bill to compensate village elders. We were looking forward to that compensation. Before I end my speech, I congratulate the former Prime Minister, one Baba Raila Amolo Odinga, for his resilience. He has demonstrated statesmanship. When Baba Raila Amolo Odinga was leaving for Addis Ababa, he stated to everybody publicly that if he got the position, the better for us. If he did not get it, he said it would be fine. Baba has done his best for this country. He did not lose. It is Kenya that lost the election. I remind Kenyans that there is one icon, Nelson Mandela, who said: “Do not judge me by my success but by how many times I fall and I am able to rise again.” I assure the country that Baba Raila Amolo will rise again. We tell Kenyans and everybody who cares to listen that Baba got over seven million votes in 2022. That is a man that Kenyans cannot ignore. This morning, I saw The Standard say ‘Taming Raila.’ We tell them that nobody in this Republic can tame Raila Amolo Odinga. Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker."
