Former Bungoma High School principal and United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party aspirant for the Malava Constituency seat, Enock Andanje, has passed away.
Andanje passed away on Friday morning in Bungoma County after he reportedly collapsed while attending a widows’ empowerment forum presided over by Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi.
Reports indicate that Andanje succumbed while being rushed to the hospital after efforts to resuscitate him proved futile.
Witnesses further revealed that the aspirant had just arrived at the event when he developed complications while alighting from his vehicle, prompting immediate intervention from those who were around him.
His demise was confirmed by the Prime CS, who briefly halted the session to announce the politician’s death.
“While we were seated here, I received news that one of us, Enock Andanje, has died,” he said.
Andanje’s death immediately sparked strong reactions from the congregants, who received the news in disbelief, with some taking to social media to mourn the teacher and politician.
