Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I join the House and the Senator for Kakamega County to pass my condolences to the family and friends of Hon. Godliver Omondi. As you have rightly put it, Hon. Omondi was nominated to this House by ODM. It gave her the platform to demonstrate her leadership skills. Many were surprised.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, correct me if I am wrong but there has been a previous ruling by the Chair, that in fact, there has never existed in the history of our Republic, a government known as the “handshake government”.
