    "content": "necessarily his personality. I would tell him that he looked like a choir master when doing his bado mapambano out there. In this House he was very dedicated. He use to be among the last persons to leave at 6.30 p.m. and contributed to almost every Motion and you could see that his contributions were well researched; his ideas were well thought out. He was someone who was always concerned and it shows in what he contributed yesterday. It does not matter whether we are talking about Turkana, Samburu, Pokot or any part of this country, he had an interest. I think even as we talk about our own personal relationships, the last thing that he contributed on was about the security of our people and the peace of the north. That is something that we need to take up. We, as leaders who are in this House should not just speak for our communities, but we should speak as a leader who means well and who would like to see a peaceful north. That is what Sen. Kajwang wanted when he contributed. Each one of us in this House has a role to play to ensure that this actually happens. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I also want to say as Sen. Murungi said, it is almost unbelievable. He was in this House yesterday, he contributed and was not unwell, but he is no more. We have to accept that this is the way we will all go and we do not know who is next. The Samburu culture has a saying that it is just like a puppy. A puppy comes to your House, you give it milk and it goes to the next house and so on. You do not know where the puppy is and you do not know which house it will go next to look for milk. I just want to say that this country is mourning and it is not just members of CORD or Jubilee, the old or the young, but everybody who interacted with him. We have actually lost a very intelligent and also a brave, eloquent orator in this country. His absence will most definitely be felt. He will be missed and we shall definitely feel his gap in this Senate. The only wish I would have asked is to have had more time to interact with him and tap into his qualities. May his soul rest in peace. VISITING DELEGATION OF MEMBERS OF LELAN MATATU ASSOCIATION FROM WEST POKOT"
