NAIROBI, Kenya, Dec 28 – Amani National Congress (ANC) Party Leader Musalia Mudavadi’s mother is dead.

Mudavadi announced on Monday via Twitter that his mother Hannah Atsianzale Mudavadi passed on Monday morning at 5.00am at Nairobi Hospital aged 92.

Hannah was the widow of Moses Mudavadi who served in President Daniel Moi’s cabinet until his death in February 1989.

“As a family, we are devastated by this loss but are bearing it with grace. Please remember us in your prayers. The Lord gives and the Lord takes. May our dear Mum’s soul RIP,” he said.

Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga condoled with the family of Mudavadi noting that “the loss of a mother devastates for a long time”.
