George Kariuki’s relatives were in mourning after the sad news of their son’s sudden death.
Kariuki died on the spot after allegedly falling from the fifth floor of an apartment building that was still under construction.
The family of 22-year-old George Kariuki claims he was pushed to death by a cement mixer.

The incident raised questions as to why construction was taking place at night when the tragedy occurred.
“I got the news that he had fallen at around eight o’clock at night. The company should be responsible for this matter and responsible for their work. They are a very big company. They should be responsible while at work. They should have their experienced people on site,” Kariuki’s uncle, John Nyoike, said.
It was alleged that the heavy machinery was being operated without a qualified operator, raising further questions about the lack of safety equipment for workers in the area.
Kariuki’s father, Francis Gitonga, could not contain his emotions after losing his beloved son, with tears streaming down his cheeks.

He praised his son, noting that he was not only a hard worker but also a disciplined young man whose future was sadly cut short.
Gitonga also noted that his son has been doing menial jobs to earn money to pay for his school fees for the mechanics course.
“I was told around nine o’clock in the afternoon that my son had fallen. I sent his brother to check on him. He was expected to take his test on Saturday, November 22. He is my third child and he was a very good boy,” she said painfully.
An autopsy was conducted at the Kitengela Sub-County Hospital to determine the cause of Kariuki’s death.
What death did Kariuki cause?
The results showed that he died from multiple skull fractures and profuse bleeding after the fall.
Kariuki’s cousin, Samuel Maina, asked the government to intervene and take action.
Maina also called on the government to investigate construction sites that work at night, noting that many workers have been injured and others are missing.
“We are asking the government to investigate,” he said.
