Her parents noted that Dr. Kitulu was always driven and passionate about anything she chose to do. Her friends and colleagues further resonated with the family\u2019s sentiments, she refused to lose and was constantly pushing for change in the health sector. One of her colleagues reminded her of a time when they worked together in the late President Kibaki\u2019s government, and she was constantly referred to as \u201cMadame Social Issues\u201d for continuously bringing attention to health and social concerns.
