"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, unfortunately, it has taken a period of six months for the body to be brought back home; there have been tiresome and involving formalities. The truth is that it is Kenya’s Ambassador to Saudi Arabia who has worked tirelessly to make sure that he raised the funds for expenses related to the body, to buy the coffin and pay the airfreight, so as to bring the body back home. I am sure the hon. Member is aware that at various times we have requested that this House looks at this issue seriously, so that some funds can be allocated to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, so that when such events take place then we do not have to go through the motions of conducting fundraisings to bring bodies home. Otherwise, the best the Ministry of Foreign Affairs could do was to buy a coffin, pay for the freight and make sure that this body was brought back home."
