"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I learnt of the death of Madam Lucy with shock. I was aware she was unwell and had gone to England for check-up. However, it did not seem to me like it was a very serious matter. I wish to send my sincere condolences to former President Kibaki. Madam Lucy was well known in this country as a woman of substance who did things for the nation. Besides her being the First Lady at the time, she was also a leader in her own right. I have personally spent time with her in fundraising functions, particularly in the Muhito Church in Mukurwe-ini where her father was also a reverend. She continued to support the church after the death of her father. I was very proud of that fact. Madam Lucy Kibaki will also be remembered for her fight for the girl child. She supported girls across Nyeri County and also across the country. She was known nationally as a person who supported development. She was a no-nonsense woman who did not like lazy people or those who could take advantage of women. She stood her ground as any person who knows their right would. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate"
