    "content": "He was very humble, friendly to everybody and ever jovial. As many have said, even in our leadership caucuses, he was a unifying centre who was never extreme on any of the political issues, be it in the House or outside the House. Many were mistaking it to say that he was a weak leader. He was not. He was very sober. He was soft but very firm. At the same time, he spoke his mind as many have said. Even the latest was when the NASA Coalition was coming up with a single presidential candidate. He spoke his mind and it is in the public domain. He was a leader who liked listening. He liked listening more than talking. When he had a position, the late Hon. Nyenze was easily convinced if you brought a better idea than what he had in mind. The late Hon. Nyenze was well versed with parliamentary rules, customs and procedures. He spoke not so many times but the few times he spoke, he returned a lot. He was so wise and as I said, he liked listening more than talking. I take this opportunity to wish the family God’s grace and comfort during this very difficult time. As my colleagues have said, we will support the family and ensure that we give our colleague a very befitting send-off. He is the first sittingMember we have lost as the 12th Parliament. May his soul rest in eternal peace."
