It is with grief that the country has learnt about
the death of former education Minister Hon Mutula Kilonzo. According to some
latest news from the family, the current Makueni Senator died at around one p.m.
at his home. The cause of his death according to sources from the family is not
yet known but they say that he has not been sick.
The Machakos county senator will be remembered for
different professional handling of issues he has always shown and especially
being a lawyer and for the directions he has always stood on as a minister in
the education sector.
He is particularly known and celebrated as one of
those Kenyans who worked tirelessly in documenting the new constitution.
Leaders have started sending their messages of
condolence to the family of the late.
Former Deputy Prime Minister Musalia Mudavadi said
that the country has lost a great legal profession and a committed leader
especially in reforming Kenya.
Mudavadi
said, “It is with deep sorrow that I have learnt of the untimely death of my
friend and former cabinet colleague Senator Mutula Kilonzo of Makueni.”
Mutula was one of the key leaders in the CORD
coalition through which he was elected the first Machakos senator. May his soul rest in peace.
