President William Ruto joined the nation in expressing sorrow, describing Kiuna as a dedicated Christian leader who inspired many to follow the teachings of the Lord.

To his wife, Rev. Kathy Kiuna, and family, we stand with you in this time of grief and mourning and pray that you find the courage to persevere through this trying period. May he rest in peace, Ruto said.
