the family of Health Chief Administrative Secretary Dr. Rashid Aman
following the death of his father, Mzee Abdi Aman.
In the condolence message, President Kenyatta described Mzee Aman as a patriarch who was a role model and a mentor to many.
“Mzee Aman was a strong pillar to his family, an elder whose counsel and
words of wisdom will be missed by many. Indeed as a respected member of
the community, he was a reference point on many on issues of life,” the
President said.
“In this hour of sorrow, I convey my deepest sympathies and heartfelt
condolences to his family, relatives and friends,” he added.
Mzee Aman, who passed on at the age of 92 years, was also the father of former PS Dr. Mohamed Isahakia.
“It is my prayer that the Almighty God will give you the strength and courage to bear the loss,” the President condoled.
President Kenyatta eulogised Mzee Aman as a champion for education who ensured that all his children acquired quality education.

and gifted person whose legacy will live on for many generations to
