    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this chance to air my condolences on my own behalf and on behalf of the people of Juja. I have known the late J.D. Otiende for a long time when he was a Minister and I was a young man. He used to visit the East African Bag and Cordage Company. I remember he used to come because of the problems that were affecting that industry. Hon. Speaker, I have heard Hon. Wangamati speak about the late Hon. Otiende. I agree that in this country today, there are two things that can make you poor - court cases and sickness. I ask Hon. Members to help the family of the late Otiende. I remember he once visited us in the company of former Minister Wanjigi. He also visited Gatundu in the company of the late President Mzee Jomo Kenyatta. I also thank you Hon. Speaker for allowing the Mau Mau veterans to access the Speaker’s Gallery. They are led by the former MP for Juja, Hon. Gitu Kahengeri. It is good when they come to Parliament to see us debating.
