While the Morgue authorities revealed that the death certificate would be given to the deceased’s next of kin who was his uncle, Kanyekiini MCA, Harrison Ngiria, promised the angry ladies that they would be included during the distribution of the wealth left by the man. It was further learnt that the 32-year-old man had a son with each of the women. The incident has reportedly gotten the attention of most Kenyans, who are reacting differently to it.
