Yesterday Kenya lost a great man. Honourable Michuki will be remembered, among other great things he did, mainly for managing to put order in the notorious Matatu sector. While he was Minister for Transport, he ensured the sector gained much needed discipline, passengers were not harrased, speed governors were installed and speed limits adhered to; safety belts were used, and road accidents reduced dramatically. Sadly much of this relapsed when he moved out of this docket to other ministries.
It was under his watch that we saw the ministry of environment gain new standing and importance as the minister, laser focused as he always is, did his best to clean up the environment, restore the Mau and curb public noise, among other things. Hope this too does not get reversed now that the dear Minister is gone. The least we can do for his memory is to uphold the things he achieved for our nation.
Thank you for ensuring Kenyans could sleep easy as you decisively dealt with the menace of criminal gangs that were threatening to turn Kenya into a terror nation.
And thank you for being a role model for so many of us who struggle to find real virtue in our leaders. You gave us that and we are so grateful.
Goodby honourable Michuki, you were a breath of fresh air. You lived out your years in the service of your country so now Rest In Peace, dear Sir.
