    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. Whenever calamities or tragedies occur, the first people to contact are the village elders. We sometimes refer to them as senior citizens. On that note, allow me to convey a word of sympathy to the family of a prominent Kenyan. On behalf of the people of Uriri and, on my own behalf, I would like to convey our heartfelt condolences to the family of Prof. Wilson Otieno Ogolla, who was until his death, the Chairman of Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Authority. He was also the Director of University and Industry Partnership. He was a Professor of Mechanical and Megatronics Engineering at the Technical University of Kenya (TUK). He was an accomplished academician, an education manager and an icon in the training industry. He was a prominent personality in this country. He was instrumental in the establishment of TVET Authority, and subsequently, appointed as its Chairman. Through his papers, he was instrumental in the Bills that we debated and passed in this House including the TVET Act, the National Qualifications Framework Bill and lately, the Engineering Technologists and Technicians Bill, which I believe is awaiting the President‟s assent. We have lost the finest brain in this country. I ask the Almighty God to rest the soul of Prof. Ogolla in eternal peace."
