On May 2, 2020, Tecra Muigai, the third-born daughter of Keroche Breweries directors Tabitha and Joseph Karanja, tragically passed away in a Nairobi hospital following a home accident in Lamu.
Her parents' pain was compounded by the recent loss of their firstborn, Fidel Odinga, on January 4, 2015.
Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga and his wife Ida Odinga visited the Karanjas to offer their condolences, a gesture that touched the hearts of many Kenyans.
Ida Odinga was visibly emotional during the visit, a testament to the depth of her empathy for the grieving family.
Reactions to the Odingas' condolence visit poured in on social media, with many praising their kindness and understanding of the pain of losing a child.
As one netizen noted, 'Death is a bad reaper that reaps the unripe fruits.' May Tecra Muigai's soul rest in peace.
