(Ms.) Sara Korere","speaker":{"id":13134,"legal_name":"Sara Paulata Korere","slug":"sara-paulata-korere"},"content":"Aghostinho Neto and Hon. Shukran Gure came to my constituency to participate in a marathon that we conduct every year to raise funds to educate underprivileged girls. It is dubbed, “The Amazing Maasai Marathon”. When I was elected, the first place I took my committee for an exchange tour was Kibra Constituency. So, I agree with everybody who has said Ken Okoth was a great leader and so was Hon. Joyce Laboso. As a woman, Hon. Joyce Laboso is a mentor to a lot of us in this Parliament. I know some Members have brought Bills in this Parliament regarding cancer. It should be declared a national disaster in this country. It is snatching lives of very productive Kenyans. If you see such high-profile people losing their lives to cancer, you just wonder what happens to the common mwananchi . I join my colleagues in condoling with the family and saying may the good Lord rest their souls in eternal peace."}
