It is sad news to hear the death of Honourable John Njoroge Michuki who was, till his death, a serving cabinet minister and zealous MP for Kangema. He succumbed to heart attack and died at the age of 80. And known to be having great relations with President Mwai Kibaki. He was taken ill on Sunday as major media houses announced and admitted at Agha Khan Hospital where he gave up his life while undergoing treatment at the intensive care unit. Earlier on, rumours had reached the news rooms that he had actually died but the truthful thing was that he was in critical condition then.He was a stickler for thoroughness; as the MPs in Kenya stated during a standing ovation time in his memory in Parliament. Indeed, he was the best person Kenya will ever have and his area members in Kangema cannot put it better. The way he served various ministries including the one for security, where he came into terms with the outlawed Mungiki sect amid human rights activists after ordering the police to shoot to kill; is worth remembering.
He will also be remembered for his great job in the name of restoring sanity in the public transport industry. Where safety belts - a thing of the past now - was introduced and well implemented in Kenya. And more so his desire to make a change in the Kenyan environment.
Rest in Peace Honourable John Michuki. We will always remember you. We say pole for the family and friends affected.
The nation has lost a very hard working man.
You may have gone too soon, Honourable Sir, before we got everything for the comfort of our future generation, but you have definitely left behind a legacy !!!
