Rest in peace Wilfred Machage
A champion of No Campaign against the new constitution.
A man who had a stand over anything he believed in.
Sad you left before William became the president.

May soul of the first Migori Senator Dr. Wilfred Machage rest in peace.
Though very proud the late Kenya’s High Commissioner to Nigeria was a very generous giver and extremely charming orator.
