We also wish to extend our sincere appreciation to friends, colleagues and extended family for standing with us during his illness and supporting us to give Mzee a befitting send-off. Special thanks go to His Excellency President Uhuru Kenyatta, for the comforting message and support to the family.

We also thank the Head of the Public Service, Mr Joseph Kinyua, the Principal Secretary of Interior, Dr Karanja Kibicho, and the Vihiga County Commissioner. Our special thanks also go to former Prime Minister, Hon. Raila Odinga, and former Speaker of the National Assembly, Hon Kenneth Marende, who were the first dignitaries to visit Mzee in hospital, and for their support to the family. Our sincere appreciation to Hon. Musalia Mudavadi, Hon. Moses Wetang’ula, Hon. George Khaniri, Hon. Bonny Khalwale, Hon.

Our sincere gratitude also goes to the Friends Church, especially at Kegoye and Luduguyu; the Principal, staff and students of Kegoye Secondary School; and the entire Kegoye community. We were tremendously touched by the Alliance Old Boys’ Association, and the school choir and band, who traveled all the way to give their ‘old boy’ and teacher a befitting farewell. Thank you too, to the Members of Parliament who supported the family in cash and kind, as well as the Former Parliamentarians Association.

May the Lord uphold you and comfort you in your hour of need. To the doctors and medical staff who attended to Mzee, your work was not in vain. Special thanks to the Wasanji and in-laws from Viyalo, Kisatiru, Kitale, Kabras, Meru, and Bushiangala.
