Grief can be overwhelming, and it's not often that one sees a public figure show emotion. However, Nairobi Senator Mike Sonko was unable to hold back his emotions as he bid his late father, Gideon Mbuvi, his last goodbye.
The late Gideon Mbuvi was laid to rest, and friends and family attended the funeral in large numbers. Charles Njagua Kanyi, also known as Jaguar, a close friend, posted a photo of himself dressed in black for the occasion as he made his way to the burial.
A photo captured the moment when Senator Sonko broke down in tears, overcome with emotion.
