"content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to appreciate and thank Hon. Ruweida for bringing this Motion. We need it to ensure that we bring back sanity to our country on how we respect those who render their services to us. Even as we continue eulogising our CDF and all the other military leaders who have led us in different countries, especially those who have fallen in Somalia, we need to respect them. Let us imagine what their wives and children go through. The request here is to see how the Ministry of Roads, Transport and Public Works and airlines can establish priority boarding protocols for the KDF and Kenya Special Forces. However, we need to look beyond that. After The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor"

"content": "a father has passed on while fighting for our country and flying that flag, what else can you give his child? How can we ensure, in this House, that those families continue getting support from Government, so that their children can finish school and move on? Even as I support this Motion this morning, I emphasise that there is need to support the families of our military. In the United States of America (USA), there is nobody who is as special as a person who has defended their country. When the American troops come back home, they find that their families are protected. They are also always remembered. There is even a holiday, in the month of May, where they are celebrated in thanksgiving. The country comes together to remember their heroes. However, after we have buried our CDF, that is the end of it. We do not remember anyone. We do not even remember the family. Nobody will remember Ms. Aileen Ogolla. Maybe the only people who will remember her are the ladies and families within the military who were with her when she got married. It is time we changed our attitude and respected every leader, be it the former President or whoever. Let us respect and honour them. It is even worse when a soldier has fallen in the line of duty. That is when we must accord them due respect and remember their family."

"content": "I eulogized the late Chief of Defence Forces (CDF), Gen. Ogolla, yesterday. For some of us who had the opportunity to see both his sides, as the CDF and as a normal person, how I wish we could understand what happened on that day. It has never happened in our country. We are taking it for granted and yet, nobody even remembered that some soldiers perished in a similar manner in the northern part of Nigeria two years ago. They experienced a similar tragedy where they lost all their soldiers. It happened in the same month two years ago. It has now happened to us. As I support this Motion, I hope that we will set priorities and come up with a policy. If the best people in the army are retired, we should ask them to come and support us. We do not need to retire them, but we should instead bring them back to use their expertise and give them some duties. They will support us. They are the best engineers. We are currently struggling with floods. I ask my Governor to go and look for the retired military generals and engineers to come and support us in Nairobi. You will see things changing. While we do all that, let us remember their children in school. Also, let us set priorities. We must learn from this tragedy going forward. One of the victims was a young man who was 29 years old. Can you imagine what state his wife and children are in? They need something to support them. As I continue praying for the General’s soul and the souls of the others, let us support their families. With those few remarks, I support the Motion. I hope that we will clear the banditry menace in Pokot. That is what they deserve."
