Mr. Munge, a former Commissioner General of Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA), passed on while undergoing treatment in a Nairobi hospital.

In his condolence message to the family, relatives and friends of the late Munge, President Kenyatta said the country has lost a patriot who served Kenyans with integrity.

“John Munge was a great Kenyan who was committed to the betterment of the country through hard work and dedication,” said the President.

The President said Mr. Munge will be remembered as one of the pioneer Kenyan stockbrokers, having been a founding partner of the Shah Munge and Partners Stock Brokers, one of the original brokers at the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE).

President Kenyatta prayed to God to comfort the family at this difficult period of mourning.
