    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me a chance to contribute to this Motion. First, on behalf of the people of Molo Constituency, I would like to pass our heartfelt condolences to the great people of Nyeri for the loss of a great economist and the second governor of Nyeri, His Excellency Dr. Gakuru. I would also like to send condolences for the loss of Hon. M’Mbijiwe. It also comes a time when we are still mourning the death of five young people who crashed into Lake Nakuru. Two of the bodies have been retrieved, but the other three bodies have not yet been retrieved. It seems even the rescue teams are giving up. It also came at a time when we had a very bad accident near my home area at a place called Salgaa, where we lost several people. So, our prayers go to all those families that are affected. I do not want to belabour the point by saying what several Members have said about the hatred that is being spread on social media especially where these deaths are concerned. Before you start talking ill of that person who has died, remember that person is still someone’s husband, wife and child. It does not matter which tribe or which part of the political divide they come from, but they are all Kenyans. When someone dies, it is sad for everyone involved. I would urge especially the young people like myself to exercise control and know where our political competition ends and humanity continues.
