Before his death, artiste Kennet B wrote a song for him.
Kennet B explained the inspiration behind the song, "Good leadership is a fusion of art and exemplary intelligence sandwiched in between love, compassion and endurance.
And it is out of this humble definition that I found the true character of Hon. Paddy Ahenda, whose friendship inspired this song, dedicated to him as a unique storyteller, a poet, a community developer and a true supporting member and friend of PAL (Poetry After Lunch), a talent development event that happens every Thursday at Kenya Cultural Centre/Kenya National Theatre-Nairobi. Enjoy."
