I first met him just after completing my driving course in 2009. I had a late lunch meeting at kula corner hurlinghum. Just as I was getting into the car to leave the venue, his car got to the parking, he was meeting some Japanese lady from his car. One of his body guards unflagged his car and got to the back where they would help the fresher driver get out of the parking. Ghafla bin vuu, I got this sound, i just knocked the Immigration Ministers car while he was inside. The body guards came flaring, one of them even wanted to get me out of the car. Accused me of intentionally knocking Hon. Kajuangs car. I thought he was being petty and just wanted to be seen to be working. I got out of the car, went to the heavily tainted window of the navy merc and knocked. The minister rolled down his window to give me the audience despite the resistance by his body guards whom i had written off my mind. Jatelo how are you, agwaro mtoki matin, nyocha aka atieko school AA to wuok e parking pod thaga, my aplologies He gave me one broad smile,probably my smile of the year and asked the bodyguard who was standing right behind me orach machalnade and the bodyguard would say ni okorach ahinya. He even apologised to me and said its ok plus asked the body guards to assist me get the car out of the parking. He wished me a good evening and rolled up his windows. Jacquie La Belle you remember this story. Fast Forward to 2013, Gor Mahia just won the KPL title after an 18year drought. Hon. Raila Odinga was paying a coutersy call to the team to congratulate and reward their effort, I was the DSG and the first elected female official to win the kpl trophy. Mr. Mapambano was in Dr. Babas entourage and i was more than surprised when he mentioned the kula corner incident. Achieng i hope ni tinde ingeyo riembo. We had a good laugh. He was brave, a true loyalist to Mr. Odinga and a very humble man. His honesty made him not register underages in Nyanza for the sake of Elections as many would have expected him to do. ODM mourns, CORD mourns, Kenyans mourn. My deepest condolences to Family and close Friends.R.I.P Mheshimiwa Kajwang.
