She recalled working with the late doctor at her Angel of Hope Foundation, praising his humility and commitment.

“I worked with him in my office at the Angel of Hope Foundation together with the Vice Chancellor.

“He was a humble man, gentle in spirit, hardworking and results-driven. He was a man of dignity.”

Offering prayers, she said:

“If only you could see the good character of Baba Madambi. May your soul rest in peace.

“God, you have called him, shepherd his soul until he reaches you. Forgive him for his shortcomings, and if there is anyone he wronged, please forgive him. He now needs your prayers.”

The First Lady urged the family to remain united during the difficult time.

“To the Madambi family, may you be comforted by God. Continue as a united family, supporting each other, and also helping the family he has left behind.”

Addressing Celebration Church congregants, she encouraged them to lift their voices in worship in remembrance of the departed.

“To Celebration Church, continue to sing well, lifting your voices in song, so that our brother may journey well.”

Reflecting on her long association with Dr Madambi, she said, “We have suffered a great loss. I first knew him in the early 1990s. His service was outstanding.”
