Former Head of State Uhuru Kenyatta has expressed his condolences on behalf of Kenyans following the death of the former cabinet secretary for education prof. George Magoha.
Prof. Magoha was lauded by the previous Head of State as a renowned scholar who leaves behind a significant legacy of public service.
"It is unfortunate and painful that we've lost my friend Prof George Magoha at a time when his family is mourning his brother," the former President said as he wished the Magoha family God's comfort during this difficult period of immense grief.
In Uhuru's administration, Prof. Magoha held the position of Cabinet Secretary for Education for three years.
After a brief illness, Prof. Magoha passed away on Tuesday evening at the Nairobi Hospital. His age was 71.
