    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. On my own behalf, that of my family, the great people of Pokot South Constituency and the great Members of my Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing where the late Hon. Suleiman Dori served, I would like to pass my condolences to the family of the late colleague. Hon. Speaker, in our Committee, we have lost a great contributor and a great man who was very active every time. When he was not present in the Committee, his absence could be felt because when he was present, he made valuable contributions. For example, when issues of the great people of Coast happened to be before the Committee for discussion or adjudication, Hon. Suleiman Dori was number one. Therefore, the Committee has lost a great man. Even some of us in the same Committee, when he was being disturbed by the other side, we were wondering how can people disturb such a gentleman and diplomat. So, actually, death is very cruel. We have lost a great man. We pray that wherever he goes, he rests in eternal peace. This is an opportunity to thank the Office of the Clerk. When I received the news yesterday morning, although I was away and engaged, I managed to get to the Clerk’s Office to facilitate my Members, led by Hon. Vincent Kemosi Mogaka, Hon. Kulow Maalim Hassan, Hon. Ahmed Gaal Bashane and Hon. Ibrahim Ahmed Abdisalan to attend the burial. They represented my Committee very well. My Members were facilitated immediately. This should be the spirit that we should find an opportunity where the Office of the Clerk can respond quickly on issues of emergency that affect the people. My Committee appreciates the Office of the Clerk. With those few remarks, I pray that our colleague may rest in eternal peace. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
