President Uhuru Kenyatta has received an outpouring of admiration after pictures of him surface on social media showing that he was the pallbearer at the funeral of Dr Njoroge Mungai.
Dr Mungai who was laid to rest on Tuesday was the personal physician to President Kenyatta’s father and founding father of the nation Jomo Kenyatta.
Social media users expressed their admiration for the president’s humility despite his status and wealth.
“Politics aside, tribal affiliations aside, sir you are one humble man, wishing you God's Favor Mr. President, you have won my respect effortlessly,” one user posted on Facebook where the images first surfaced.
President Kenyatta eulogised the late Dr Mungai as a model leader full of insights and one whose legacy people should learn from.
“He [Dr Mungai] has been a true mentor in life and politics. One of the lessons we need to learn from our founding fathers is that sacrifice, commitment, dedication in service are key to success.
