His colleagues and family have commemorated him as a hardworking and visionary leader while terming his death as a big blow.
“It is with great sorrow to learn of the demise of my great friend and MCA aspirant Kyome Thaana ward Stanley Muthengi. It’s too unfortunate to die a few hours after presenting nominations papers and being awarded a certificate to vie. Muthengi was a joyful, hardworking and visionary leader. May God comfort his immediate family members, extended family, friends, the people of Kyome Thaana ward and Mwingi west constituency at large,” a friend wrote on social media.
