    "content": "Thank you. On behalf of the people of Migori County and on my own behalf, allow me to send my condolences to the people of Makueni and Siaya on the passing on of hon. Kasanga Mulwa and hon. Grace Ogot. As a young girl growing up through high school and university, I read a number of her books. Although I never met her physically, I read the great books that she authored. She was a great author. As a woman of this country, I know Mama Grace Ogot has been in the frontline in championing women and girls’ rights. That is exactly what we do. As my colleague, the hon. Member for Narok has said, the only way to honour that lady is to ensure that the gains that we are making as a country - and especially the women - are not going to get lost; but those that we are all going to embrace in this House and move forward. In this House, we have discussed about honouring people who have gone before us. I want to ask this House to consider honouring people like the late hon. Grace Ogot and the late hon. Justice Kasanga Mulwa by erecting monuments, constructing and naming roads after them. That is the only way we are going to ensure that they are remembered. I wish to send my condolences to the people of Siaya and Makueni constituencies. Thank you very much."
