‘Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints” (Psalms 116: 15)
Senior Chief Makatiani (Senior) as I always called him was one nice and polished government administrator who was always handy to either give valuable advice or assist in any way possible. Working far from home ensured I was in constant touch with senior to learn ground issues of importance. Losing him is a teŕrible blow to his beloved family, friends and colleagues alike. I will miss his wise counsel on many issues, his warm smile, and above all his service to both the government and his people. Senior, fare the well, till we meet again, Amen?♂️
