    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. On behalf of the people of Kitui South and on my own behalf, I would like to join you and the House in condoling our two colleagues, Hon. Malulu Injendi and Hon. Cheptumo. It is a very sad moment for all of us to lose two great gentlemen who have served in this House. I served with the two of them in the 11th Parliament, 12th Parliament and also in the 13th Parliament. As much as Hon. Cheptumo was in the Senate, he would cross over to this side and consult us. As other Members have said, Hon. Malulu Injendi was a very respectful person, a person who was committed to his constituents, to his family, very humble and God-loving. Hon. Speaker, it is hard to forget the position Hon. Malulu Injendi sat. Whenever he wanted to speak, I would observe when I got an opportunity to sit where you sit, that he would approach it with great respect. He always walked to that seat with a lot of respect. Hon. Malulu's contribution to education in his Malava Constituency, in this House and also in the country, is worth noting. I remember when we were dealing with the Sugar Bill, Hon. Malulu Injendi participated immensely and passionately for his people. I take this opportunity to condole with his family and ask God to keep him in a safe place which he worked hard for. Hon. Speaker, give me a chance to say a word about Hon. Cheptumo. I have interacted with Hon. Cheptumo in this House. We served together in the 12th Parliament in the Liaison Committee when I chaired the Departmental Committee on Lands and he was also in the Committee on Delegated Legislation."
