"content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for allowing me this opportunity to mourn with the people of Kwale County and my colleagues in this Senate. Sen. Boy Juma Boy was a nationalist, a selfless man and a true friend. I had the opportunity to mingle and seek advice from this great man who Kenya has lost. He is one of the Senators who I had an opportunity to, over five times, visit with in Nyamria County to speak on our oversight role. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Sen. Boy Juma Boy had skills of a parliamentarian. I remember that about ten months ago, when democratically I trounced my good friend Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale and I was excited, I met Sen. Boy Juma Boy and he asked me: “Did you speak with the god fathers of the party?” I told him: “No, it is a democracy and I have won.” He told me: “Hold your horses.” Within 24 hours I had been de whipped by the so-called “owners of parties”. Sen. Boy Juma Boy was a selfless man. He stood for his people and for Kenya. May the Lord rest his soul in eternal peace."
