He noted that the late MP played an active role in parliamentary debates and consistently championed the interests of the people of Emurua Dikirr.“Kenya has lost a bold leader who believed in accountability and service to the people,” Moi said, adding that Ng’eno’s contributions in Parliament and in grassroots development would be remembered for years to come.The KANU chairman also signed the condolence book and joined the family in a brief prayer session.
