President Uhuru Kenyatta pays his last respects to former Tanzania President Dr John Pombe Joseph Magufuli during the State Funeral at Jamhuri Stadium in Dodoma. [Courtesy]On Monday March 22, President Uhuru Kenyatta attended a memorial service for the late Tanzanian President John Pombe Magufuli. As soon as he heard the call to prayer, President Uhuru paused his speech for the entire duration. Rather, just as happened when President Uhuru paused his speech because of prayer, we need to deliberately pause and refocus our way of life to prayer. When he paused during the Muslim call to prayer, President Kenyatta was in essence showing respect to our Muslim brethren.
