Pole sana to the family, relatives, friends, former class mates, colleagues and associates for this unfortunate, sad and sudden occurrence. In David, l encountered a very human and humane individual, sensitive, , very committed to anything that he laid his hands on, hard working to the hilt, calm, open minded, down to earth, friendly and extremely valued relationships. David always gave anything he did his best. His very best. We have lost a gem - as a country and as humanity. May the good Lord give him his rightful place. Peace, grace and fortitude to the family. RIEP, Justice Majanja.

Justice Majanja was a very hard working and dedicated man who was a mentor and inspiration to many. His legacy still lives on. May he rest in peace


A voice that never faltered to guide, a mind so wise never wavered to teach, a soul so gentle yet authoritative that the Order was heard... Requescat In Pace, iudex.


Rest in Power Hon. David Majanja. The whole field of fact and fancy has been gleaned and garnered. You may have left us, but your ink wells are still full with us presently. Your written decisions bear testimony of the reverence we had of your ball pen. In my court appearances that you presided over, I would say that any man can say things that are true of Hon. Justice David Majanja, but no man can say anything that is new of Hon. Justice David Majanja.


Fare Thee Well Judge ! We have truly lost !


By your pen you sharpened our legal minds; by your lifestyle you demystified professional life as more than just about riches and status; by your humility you disarmed and won over the junior and senior alike; by your free spirit you reminded us to take a moment to live and by your professionalism and intellect left an indelible mark in the lives of many in the Kenya and beyond. You did life with distinction. You were a good judge and a good human and it was an honor knowing you. Rest in eternal peace.


Justice Majanja was one of the most astute and celebrated judges in the justice system of Kenya. During his tenure , he served with integrity and honesty and always upheld the rule of law with utmost impartiality. His death came as a surprise to the nation at large. The legal fraternity has lost one of the best we ever produced. May you shine on your way. Till we meet again RIP


Go well Judge. You were kind, professional and a great jurist. The Legal profession has lost the finest of its members. Till we meet again.


I first met "Maj," as we did farm work in our house paddock in Form 1 as I marvelled at this very brilliant boy from Hill School Eldoret. Later he gave me a chance in campus to do an article in the law students "Sheria " magazine of which he was Associate editor. We also served with him in Trial Advocacy trainings from 2009 till 2011 wheh he was appointed judge of the High court. In the last two years he has been present in two very significant life events for me: my wedding and my dad's demise,coming all the way to my rural home. A terrible loss this is, but like a diligent farmer, he sowed seeds in paying fees for educating many needy boys and girls, and like the hymn went, as we start seeing them graduate one by one, we shall be rejoicing as we see them bringing in Majanja's sheaves. If I am to describe him in three words they would be Brilliant, Generous and Compassionate.


We have unfinished business. You were such a calm and resourceful person. Your impact personal and corporate is undiminished even in death. In silence, you speak ever so loudly and firmly. In our hearts that are aching, you left so soon. In God's plan, in whom your truly belong, your had served your purpose. Fare Thee Well, bro, Fare Thee Well.


I first met Justice David Majanja in 1997 when I was an intern at the firm of Mohammed Muigai where he was a freshly minted Advocate. Maj as we fondly remember him, taught us the ropes, patiently explaining different legal concepts and procedures. A total gentleman, Justice Majanja was a brilliant lawyer and a great fit both at the bar and the bench. He will be remembered for his contribution to jurisprudence and Leadership. Fare thee Well Justice David .A.S. Majanja may the good Lord look upon your soul with favour and mercy. Rest well.


May ur soul rest in peace my Boss we worked with u at homabay high court as ur weekend driver
