    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I also send my condolences to the former President and his family. I know the family has lost its pillar. Indeed, Mama Lucy was the pillar of her children. I hope that as they prepare to celebrate all that their mother has done for them and for this country, they will always remember the values that she instilled in them. We celebrate Mama Lucy. First of all, she was the first to chair the Organisation of African First Ladies Against HIV/AIDS (OAFLA). I remember very well that she stood very firm for the less fortunate, especially children whose parents could not even bring them out. She went out to celebrate with those children and ensured their parents appreciated them and overcame that stigma. We celebrate Mama Lucy and remember her humour. She taught us, women, one thing; that it is up to you to stand and fight for your family. She also taught us courage in the sense that you can stand and believe what you believe in without thinking of anything else. She taught us that one needs to be determined and believe that they can make it in any way, whether there are barriers or not. That is what she did. As we celebrate her life, may the Lord rest her soul. We will continue to remember her as a teacher and mother for this country."
