It was a sad day for a family in the city Nairobi while they were resting their loved one who passed away in the hospital due to breathing problems.

Speaking to TUKO.co.ke, her relative, Sarah Elizabeth Metho, said Adhiambo started to get sick after her husband was arrested.

“Her weakness was the result of her husband's arrest, which happened in March last year, where he was remanded. He was rushed to Mathari Hospital as an inpatient after his mental condition deteriorated,” said the sad relative.

He had previously said that they had financial challenges to raise money to pay the hospital bills left by the deceased.

They had to raise money before they were allowed to take the body and bury their loved one.

“For luck good, we were able to collect the balance and give our partner a proper burial. It was short-lived because we had a few hours to collect the money and bury it immediately, but we made it,” he said.
