Industrialisation Chief Administrative Secretary (CAS) David Osiany has lost his father.

Osiany announced the passing on of his father on Twitter on Wednesday morning.

“My father, my friend, Osiepa has rested. Brave, thoughtful, wise, measured, forthright and loving.

“That’s who we have lost. Always referring to me as Osiepa (my friend), my father never called me by name.

“The tree under whose canopy we dwelt, has finally been cut. Awuoro!” He wrote.

He, however, did not reveal what took the life of his father.

Osiany is an accomplished communication expert and was appointed as CAS by President Uhuru Kenyatta in February 2021.

He also worked as a journalist at Royal Media Services before he moved to Oxfam as a governance associate.

Osiany also worked for former Prime Minister Raila Odinga as a Youth Affairs advisor in 2012.
