The ex-judge’s daughter, Caroline Aganyanya, told People Daily on Wednesday that burial preparations are ongoing and memorial mass will be held on January 29 at Citam Valley road church  in Nairobi. 

"We will have a requem mass in Nairobi on January 29 then remove the body the following day as we have another service at his local church Musukhura," she said adding that the main send off ceremony will be held at Imusubzu Salvation Army church from 10:00am.
