A condolence book has been opened at the Senate reception, Main Parliament Buildings, for Hon. Senators, Members of the National Assembly and parliamentary staff to commiserate with the family of the late Member. On behalf of the Senate and my own behalf, I extend my heartfelt condolences to the family of the late hon. Charles Were, MP as well as the residents of Kasipul Constituency during this difficult time. In honour of our departed colleague, I request that we all stand and observe a minute of silence."

It was in a manner so gruesome and so sad as to paint a picture of the insecurity of every elected Member. Mr. Speaker, Sir, as a member of ODM, we are mourning and will continue to mourn during this period before we lay the late Ong’ondo Were to rest on Friday, 9th at Kasipul. This is a lesson to all of us who are Members here that we must ensure that in our legislative duties, we think about life and the afterlife. This means that we must know that we serve a constituency and people. When we are in the Senate, we must deliver to those people because we are only here for some time. It is only the Almighty God who can determine the time when we exit from this world. It is not in our hands. We cannot define the manner, the architecture or the design of how we depart from the universe. Therefore, we must serve and continue to do so at the mercy of His Almighty God. I pray that the Almighty God place the hon. Ong’ondo Were's family in comfort and console them during this trying time. I also pray for all the fraternity of the ODM family and Homa Bay County because this was a gentleman who was poised to become the Chairperson of ODM in Homa Bay County. May the Almighty God rest his soul in eternal peace."

"content": "fired. Such brutality against an elected Member or any other person is not warranted at all. This raises concerns to the nature of security systems in the country. We should have a system where everyone is taken care of; not only by the police, but also by the society. This is because even those who were with him were not able to help him or deal with the assassins immediately. We have seen some arrests. We hope that they are the right arrests and the family of Hon. Were will get justice. We pray that this does not happen again; that the security systems will learn something from it and improve security, not only of elected Members, but of every single citizen of this country. Mr. Speaker, Sir, on behalf of the people of Makueni County and my own behalf, we condole with the family and pray that God strengthens the family. I thank you for giving me this opportunity. May his soul rest in eternal peace."
