Kenya is once again in mourning following the death of another former Member of Parliament who passed away in a Nairobi hospital while undergoing treatment.
The family confirmed that the former legislator died after battling a long but undisclosed illness, adding to a growing list of leaders lost in recent weeks.
The latest death comes at a time when the country is still grappling with the loss of two other former MPs, Honorable Cyrus Jirongo and Honorable Enock Kibunguchi, who both passed away earlier this month.
Their deaths have sparked national conversations, with the circumstances surrounding Jirongo’s demise particularly drawing public attention and controversy.
During a recent memorial service, former Vihiga County Senator George Khaniri raised serious concerns regarding Jirongo’s death.

Khaniri revealed that a private investigator allegedly showed the family a video placing Jirongo in a car with another individual on the day he died.
According to Khaniri, the person seen with Jirongo has yet to come forward to explain what transpired.
He further claimed that injuries observed on Jirongo’s body were not consistent with the damage recorded on the vehicle involved, intensifying calls for clarity and transparency.
Honorable Cyrus Jirongo, the former Lugari MP, is scheduled to be laid to rest at his Kitale home today, December 30, 2025, as family, friends, and leaders gather to bid him farewell.
Meanwhile, fresh grief struck Kakamega County following the passing of Honorable Daniel Lyula Khamasi, the former Member of Parliament for Shinyalu Constituency.

As the nation reflects on these losses, Kenyans have been urged to observe a moment of silence in honor of fallen former MPs from Kakamega County: Hon. Cyrus Jirongo (Lugari), Hon. Enock Kibunguchi (Likuyani), and Hon. Lyula Khamasi (Shinyalu). May their souls rest in eternal peace.
