    "content": "a clear hearted person. He had no animosity. What you saw in him was what he was. He had no animosity. We served, most of the time, in opposite camps but we also served on one side at one time. At no time did we have animosity towards each other. He would always smile. He had a lot of humour and friendship. I, therefore, join my colleagues in mourning Sen. Kajwang. I send my condolences, those of my family and the Nairobi people whom I have served for a long time, to the family of late Sen. Kajwang. This is not only a loss to CORD. Sen. Kajwang was a national leader and this is a national loss. I remember many brilliant contributions made by him. One that stuck in my mind was the “Donde Bill” when he spoke very passionately in the Eighth Parliament. He spoke about the compounded interest that saw many people lose their properties. He gave his own personal experience which was very moving. The Bill went through and since then, many people have got relief because there were no compounded interests by banks. That was one of the instances. In the Cabinet, he was articulate, fearless and spoke on issues which most of the time we get lost in. We end up not speaking on issues but dwell in partisan politics. That is what builds animosity. I hope that if nothing else, we will copy Sen. Kajwang with regard to his openness so that we do not mix siasa with issues. We should serve Kenyans as diligently as he did. This House has lost an articulate, fearless, and strong debater in the person of Sen. Kajwang. May his soul rest in eternal peace. Amen."
