    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to add my voice to those of the people of goodwill, who are expressing their sympathies, love and concern to our unfortunate brothers, sisters and families in West Pokot. As a family, nation and as a people, we are mourning the loss of lives of many people whose sin or offence, perhaps, is poverty. They are the poor and vulnerable people who live in one remote area called West Pokot, and they are part and parcel of this nation. Those unfortunate citizens died very sadly. Some of them did not know that a disaster of this magnitude would ensue in their lives. Some of them had dreams and hopes. Maybe others were robustly aspiring to participate in supporting or amending the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) Report, or doing something positive about the future of this country. It is, therefore, unfortunate that this disaster has cut their expectations and hopes in life before they are realised. However, those of us who are left behind must continuously pray for these unfortunate Kenyans. We must continue doing what we must do to ensure that such disasters do not recur. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
