Wabukala also stated that Kenyans will remember Mzee Moi for his guiding Nyayo Philosophy of peace, love and unity, in his endeavour to unite all Kenyans.
"We also dearly remember his love for God and his love of education for our nation's children. May the Almighty God comfort his family and may his soul rest in eternal peace. Amen," he concluded.
Moi died on Tuesday at the Nairobi Hospital.
He died at the age of 95, although his press secretary Lee Njiru said he was about 102 or 103.
Speaking to Citizen TV on Tuesday, Njiru said Moi told him not to go by what was in his ID.
"Let me clarify that Mzee Moi was not 96 years old. He was about 102 or 103 years. He started walking using a walking stick. Then a wheelchair. I have seen a steady decline in his health since then," Njiru said.
