I never got a chance to have a personal interaction with you. But I knew the person you were through those who worked closely with you. During my time as a legal researcher, you fought for us to have better terms. You never told us it had happened. We felt the impact and so the manifestation of your dedication. I will remember you as a with humility who fought for our welfare. You judgments breathed life to the law and jurisprudence. Through them, we will remember that you were a man of honor, and astute intelligence. Though God takes the best, you have gone too soon

I mourn the loss of a great legal mind Justice Majanja.When I first stepped in a court of law,the name that was largely associated with the bench was his name.I thought he was the only Judge in Kenya.As a good and a strict Judge he was,he will be missed by many Kenyans not only lawyers.May his soul rest in eternal peace
Great soul, great human being. Made practice before his courts beautiful and spent every minute making sure the wheels of justice were smooth. Always throrough and punctual. Fare thee well judge. And may the family find peace during this trying time. So long M'lord...so long...
Rest well Big Brother. You always remain a great inspiration in delivery of justice since the time I met you at the Introduction to Arbitration class at KIE.
I first met Commissioner David Majanja in the early 90s when he was my senior at Alliance High School. He had the gift of innovative thinking, visionary spirit and tenacious patience. His energy, commitment and integrity on anything he did, are words that capture my image of the Judge. He was one of a kind and will be sorely missed as a leader, mentor, friend, scholar and exceptional Judge.
The first time I appeared before you, I was young and new in practice, you corrected and guided me with so much humility that to date has shaped my legal experience. Rest well Judge. You touched a life
Go well Judge, we serve a God of excellence, our excellent God plucked the most excellent of his creations to serve in his Palace.. till we meet again Judge, on that beautiful shore.
You were a fair, courteous and firm Judge who made groundbreaking decisions. Your contribution to the development of the law will be dearly missed. I won and lost cases before you in equal measure but never for once did I fail to appreciate your sharp legal reasoning. Shine on Judge and may you rest in eternal peace.
