"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Allow me to also join my colleagues on behalf of the people of Kitutu Masaba, my family and myself to express my heartfelt condolences to the families of the six Kenyans who have just left us. I also want to thank His Excellency the President, the Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs, the Prime Minister and yourself, Mr. Speaker, for leading this nation at this very difficult time. Hon. Prof. Saitoti was a special man. As we have been told, he was a man of peace. He was fighting to ensure that there was peace in this country. He was selfless and he stood for the country. We know very well that Prof. Saitoti, when called upon, would serve this country in whatever capacity. Hon. Ojode was a wonderful man in this Parliament. He served us well in this House. I knew him very closely and I have even visited his home. He was a great man and we will miss him. Hon. Ojode did everything to ensure that he served this House and this nation properly. The Cabinet should take the cue from the way hon. Saitoti and hon. Ojode worked as Ministers in the same Ministry. The other Ministers should also give their Assistant Ministers equal time and opportunity to serve the way hon. Saitoti did. We should not forget this issue because they were selfless and they served this country to the best of their capacities. I wish to ask the Government to take care of all the fallen six Kenyans, including the officers and captains who died in the plane crash. I would like to tell the Minister for Transport that there are too many accidents in this country on our roads and in the air. It is important that the Ministry comes up with a policy of ensuring that we limit the accidents that happen in this country. With those few remarks, I thank you."
