What he will be remembered for

Kibaki has been mourned by several leaders on their pages. He will be remembered for his manner of ruling which was a low-key publicity averse but highly intelligent and competent technocrat. However, his presidency revived the country’s economy after years of being stagnant.

“Mwai Kibaki lives on in our fond memories of his strength of will, charm, wit, and passionate love of God, Family, Nation, and Humanity,” Uhuru stated.
