Rest in peace my good friend


He was a kind and humble man, always willing to lend a listening ear and offer advice. He had a great sense of humor and his presence always brought joy to those around him. What I will remember most about him is his passion for justice and fair play. He always strived to uphold the rule of law and ensure that justice was served for all. Justice Majanja was also a great mentor to me and many others. He was always willing to share his knowledge and impart wisdom. He was a true leader and his dedication to the legal profession was admirable. His passing is a great loss to the legal fraternity and the country as a whole. We have lost a brilliant mind and a true servant to the people. My thoughts and prayers are with his family during this difficult time. Justice Majanja will be deeply missed, but his legacy will live on through the lives he touched and the cases he presided over. Rest in peace, my dear friend.


He was the best of his kind. A force to reckon. A mentor. He inspired and guided the young in the legal profession. He shall live on.


As a young Advocate and student of the law, I always looked forward to JSC interviews and always had a keen interest in your line of questioning. I would gauge my knowledge of the law per time off of your questions. God bless you for dedicating your brilliance towards the service of the nation. You left a good example for the rest of us and hopefully, we emulate that which you have taught us in our journey through the corridors of justice. Rest easy, Judge - albeit shortlived, that, in my opinion, was a life well lived. ❤


You will always be remembered for your fearlessness and dedication in safeguarding human rights under the new constitution. Rest in Peace Judge


Hon Commissioner Justice David Majanja It is hard time but we celebrate the time that God gave you to us as our Hon. Commissioner . You were such a humble Commissioner who cared for us as the staff of the Commission. I remember when we were at the Head of Stations Forum in Kisii this year in May and you took your time to introduce the members of JSC secretariat who were present and you knew each of us and our roles in the Secretariat . We felt valued and loved . I remember you called me on Saturday before your demise for some budget information so that you could follow up on the Judiciary’s and JSC budget . That was a testament of your dedication to your calling as a Commissioner and to the administration of Justice in this country . Fare thee well Hon. Commissioner Majanja


Justice Majanja, indeed a Kenyan Jurist. Your legal decisions from the bench are of legal distinction and will forever guide in the legal corridors. Off the bench, a truly humble, affable, generous and quite a gentleman. Thank you for giving us The Majanja Cup. We shall miss you and the times we shared but the memories are forever etched in our hearts. Fare thee well good Judge.


A man of honor, dignity and wit. A mentor and a great elder brother. He was a giant whose shoes we shall strive to fill. It is another Lord Denning of our time.


Dear Judge, Dear Commissioner, My big brother. It has been so hard for me to accept your passing. I remember the first time you called me and introduced yourself. I had just lost my dad. You called me everyday until the day he was buried. From then on we became family. I remember you called me one Saturday morning just before you decided to vie for JSC for the first time, I picked your call and said Vushiere Commissioner. You really laugher and asked 'mtoto wetu will I make it'?. And I said, Judge just give us the go ahead and we will do the ground work. Judge you made it! You made our village shine, you made our mwironje clan shine. Judge, you were my protector! You had my best interest at heart. I don't know what to do after this. Please be our guardian angel 👼🏽 up in heaven. May you pray for our community. Say hi to my daddy up there. Judge, we will not let you down. God will hold our hand and help us to achieve all you had planned for us. Letting you go is tough but God knows why. I know I will meet you in heaven but I will miss you here on earth. I will miss your bear hugs. God bless your soul.


It's so sad to say goodbye Judge. But it's God's plans. Till we meet again...May you shine on your way & your soul to RIP.


Hon. Justice Shikomera Majanja exemplified brilliance and grace in his pursuit of justice. His courteous and positive demeanor left an enduring impression on all who had the privilege of knowing him. May the Lord comfort his family and the Judiciary family.


Good well hero. You will forever be cherished as the Chief Justice that Kenya missed to have in the jurisprudential matters in our beloved Country.
