Description

Relatives and friends turned up in great numbers on Saturday for the burial of murdered lawyer Willie Kimani at his Mai-a-ihii home in Kikuyu.

Those who attended the burial included Law Society of Kenya President Isaac Okero and prominent lawyer Paul Muite as well as Members of Parliament.

Lawyers who paid tribute to Kimani described him as an example in courage and vowed that his good works would not be forgotten.

“Willie was a friend and mentor to me. He will be truly missed. What happened to him is an indication that the legal profession is the most dangerous but we will never relent in our quest for justice,” Lawyer Wilson Kihanda said.

Another lawyer, Nathan Mbugua, remembered him this way: “Kimani took his work seriously. He did not flinch, he did not hesitate, he did not run. Such was his courage, such was his strength. Willy Kimani was a lion of the first order.”
