Son of Former Senator Johnson Muthama Dies After Sudden Collapse
Machakos Senator Agnes Kavindu and Parliamentary Service Commission member Johnson Muthama are mourning the death of their son, Moses Nduya Muthama, who died on Wednesday evening after collapsing at his home.
Family members said Moses was rushed to a nearby medical facility following the collapse, but medical efforts to save his life were unsuccessful. His death comes after the family previously lost a daughter, Janet Njoki, who died in 2022.
Leaders from across the political divide have sent messages of condolence to the family. Kitui Senator Enock Wambua expressed his sympathies to Kavindu and her family, offering prayers and support during what he described as a difficult period.
Machakos Governor Wavinya Ndeti also conveyed her condolences, noting that Moses had been appointed Director of Administration in the county government in 2024. She acknowledged his service and said the county administration would stand with the family during the mourning period.
Several leaders and colleagues remembered Moses for his personal character. Local politician Chris Muthini described him as humble and approachable, while ODM communications director Philip Etale said he was easy-going and well liked by those who knew him.
