    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker. I also rise to be together with my colleagues in the Eleventh Parliament for losing one of us. The late hon. Nyumu was my neighbour in Kiambu County. Gatundu South and Juja Constituency are neighbours. Hon. Speaker, we also thank you, the President, the Deputy President and all the Members of Parliament who attended the funeral. It was a good show of the Eleventh Parliament. After we lost hon. Ngugi, Members of Parliament started to raise funds immediately for his funeral. It is true that you raised a lot of money, which helped us in Kiambu County. We have seen the togetherness of the CORD and Jubilee coalitions. This shows that if we stay united not only when one of us has departed, we can run this country together. I thank all the Members from the CORD and Jubilee coalitions who joined us as we visited his family and subsequently proceeded with the burial arrangements in Gatundu. We are also grateful for the money that you gave us for the expenses. We know that most of the Members of the Committee on Education, Research and Technology were weeping in front of me when I broke the news to them. That is the way to go. So, I thank everybody in this House. I know that those who did not join us were committed elsewhere. Some had sent their condolences. May God bless this House for the unity that I saw during the burial preparations of hon. Ngugi! Thank you."
