Shamalla died on Wednesday morning, aged 84 after a short illness, the church said.
In his message of condolences to the family, the DP eulogized the cleric as a faith leader with steadfast religious credence.
"He was a faith leader with steadfast religious credence. His sermons were always powerful, enriching and educative,” Ruto stated.
" Our prayers to the Shamalla family, the church and the people of Malava during this painful time of mourning. Rest In Peace my friend,” he tweeted.
African Church of the Holy Spirit National Secretary-General Samson Khalwale while announcing the death said the high priest who was also in charge of churches not only in Kenya but also in Uganda and Tanzania will he laid to rest on Saturday at his Tumbeni home in Malava sub-county.
The late Shamalla was the fifth priest of the church and was installed in 2014.
