NAIROBI, Kenya Nov 19 – Homabay Senator Otieno Kajwang is dead.Kajwang, a vocal ODM leader and close confidant of opposition chief Raila Odinga, died at the Mater Hospital in Nairobi where he had been rushed for emergency treatment after suffering cardiac arrest on Tuesday night.

"It is very unfortunate," a close family member said, "we have lost him."

Fellow leaders and family members who spoke to Capital FM News at the hospital said he died of what was described as a ‘massive cardiac arrest'.

There was no immediate statement from the hospital.

A family member said he was taken to the hospital at about 9 pm after complaining of chest pains while at home, and was declared dead two hours later.

Among leaders who rushed to the hospital soon after the Senator was taken there was Ruaraka MP T.J Kajwang who is also related to the deceased. The deceased had served as Immigration Minister in the former President Mwai Kibaki's coalition government.

Senate Majority Leader Kithure Kindiki said he was "shocked to learn that Kajwang is dead" having spoken to him at 4pm on Tuesday.

"We have lost a good debtor, great senator and lawyer," he said of Kajwang whom he described as a "friend to both sides of government and the opposition."

Fellow Senator Omar Hassan of Mombasa sent condolences to Kajwang's family saying he had lost a "great comrade."

Elgeyo Marakwet Senator Kipchumba Murkomen said he will remember the deceased as a "passionate and eloquent debater who was full of life and humour."

Several government officials, including State House Director of Digital Media Dennis Itumbi were at the hospital to condole with the family.

The family was working on plans to move the body to the Lee Funeral Home.

Let the drums roll:


Drama unfolded at the Lee Funeral Home after a woman showed up saying she is Kajwang's legal wife.

Drama unfolded at the Lee Funeral Home in Nairobi on Friday after a woman claiming to be a legal wife of the late Homa Bay Senator Otieno Kajwang' was locked out of the funeral parlour.


The woman, identified as Faith Vivian Otieno, and her daughter, Christie Otieno, 18, and some relatives were barred from the facility.

She protested that she was the late senator's legal wife and demanded to be allowed to view his body as well as participate in funeral arrangements.

"I have been married for 19 years to Otieno Kajwang'. We have two children, Christie, who just completed high school, and Ronnie Odinga Otieno, 19, who is in Kabarak University. "Let it be known that I am not his girlfriend but his legal wife. In fact, when she (Rose Kajwang') was in the UK, I was the one living with Kajwang'," she said.

As the fracas ensued, Rose Kajwang' was inside the funeral parlour but later walked out accompanied by Siaya Senator James Orengo at 12.30pm and boarded a waiting car.

She did not speak to reporters.

Later, Mr Orengo, accompanied by the late senator's brother Tom Kajwang', who is also the Ruaraka MP, said that funeral arrangements were under way and the results of the post-mortem to ascertain the cause of the senator's death would be released in two to three hours to the press.

The initial medical reports stated that Mr Kajwang' died from a heart attack moments after getting to Mater Hospital on Tuesday night.
