News of Amimo’s death spread on Sunday morning, December 7.
His colleague, who spoke to TUKO.co.ke on condition of anonymity, confirmed that he collapsed and died.
Why does Millie Odhiambo want Festus Amimo’s death to be investigated?
Reacting to Amimo’s unexpected death, Millie described it as shocking. The MP called for an investigation into the sudden deaths.
Recently, many famous people have died suddenly, either from fainting or shortly after a short illness. The situation is scary.
Millie wondered if it was due to the COVID-19 vaccines that many Kenyans took in 2021, after the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Festus Amimo’s death is surprising. These sudden deaths must be investigated, as suggested by Raila’s sister, Dr. Akinyi Wenwa. Could they be linked to the COVID vaccines?” Millie wrote on Facebook.
Many fans attended the comment section with various opinions.
Anita Soina, MP for The Green:
“It’s possible! And now our health data has just been released. It seems “safe” to the West.”
Ɲamawag Ɲamawag:
“This is sad. However, sudden deaths can be attributed to various underlying causes. Concluding that these events are linked to COVID-19 vaccines requires rigorous scientific investigation and should not be done prematurely. Several common medical conditions cause sudden death in otherwise healthy people. May his soul rest in eternal peace.”
Simeon Rotich:
“This is a legitimate matter and should be thoroughly investigated.”
Josephat Ogada:
“Please take it as your own initiative and persuade the relevant agencies to start an investigation immediately. We all support it.”
Jeconia Wuod Nyandere:
“Sudden deaths have been with us since ancient times and different people. When we don’t accept that death can happen to anyone, any family and at any time, that’s how God will do his will.”
Chimamanda Lc:
“Please, can we get rid of the COVID vaccines? Many people I know who didn’t take the vaccine have died mysterious and unexplained deaths. Postmortems determine the cause of death.”
Diana Rose:
“Please stop the antivaxx theories. The COVID-19 vaccine saved millions.”

As previously reported, many dignitaries, including Home Secretary Raymond Omollo, Governor of Siaya James OrengoUriri Member of Parliament Mark Nyamita and David Osiany, have shared emotional tributes.
