"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance to also eulogize a great man who lived his life well. At 81 years, he was educated and had withstood criticisms. He had also written many books. Therefore, we need to celebrate his life. While doing that, we need to encourage our children to work hard and emulate such people whom we can learn from. This was a man who, not only made Kenya proud, but also Africa as a continent. His achievements make us, as a country, feel very proud of him as a man. We, as the Senate, need to encourage the young people to work hard, because it is sad to lose professors. In the part of the country that I come from, we do not have many people joining universities lately. It is our responsibility, as legislators, to encourage our young people to work hard and join universities. We may lose professors because of their age, but we can still make more professors. This is because God has given us a chance to follow the footsteps of such great men. Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir."
