Veteran and Former MP Kimani Wanyoike Dies at Age 85

Former South Kinangop MP Kimani Wanyoike died while receiving treatment at a Nairobi hospital.

The politician passed away on the morning of Wednesday, April 29, aged 85 years. The deceased had been battling a long illness before his final bow.

It was not, however, clear what the politician had been suffering from at the time of publishing.

Kimani, who is a former detainee and a trade unionist, ran for president in 1997 on a Ford Kenya ticket.

He also served for many years as a trade unionist.

In 1996, the politician had a political tryst with Ken Matiba and former Prime Minister Raila Odinga. The alliance, however, died a natural death.

Prayers for his family as they have lost their loved one and to the people of south Kinangop and may his soul rest in peace
