    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, when I spoke to her last year, she expressed her desire to join the Senate. However, this was not to be. We eulogize her for proving that women can be elected as leaders. She won with a landslide and became the first woman governor for Bomet County. She was amongst the three elected governors. She was a trailblazer and we really honor her. Madam Temporary Speaker, the late hon. Ken Okoth was a great leader that I met in the Eleventh Parliament. We were the young Turks of ODM. Hon. Zuleikha Juma Hassan, the current Member of Parliament (MP) for Kwale Constituency and myself are the ones who revived the Kenya Young Parliamentarians Associations (KYPA) after many years. Sooner than later, the late hon. Ken Okoth, Sen. Sakaja and other Members joined us. So, it is really painful to see a young man---. Madam Temporary Speaker, I do not know whether our Standing Orders allow me, but kindly allow me to read something here in his honor then I will go to the Motion. “I am angry at you Ken Okoth. How could you just go like that? I thought we had a dream to transform Kenya together. Deep within, your death has robbed me of some hope. I have never seen a young man so committed to transform his own community that The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
