The MP for Emurua Dikirr, who was serving his third term since he was elected in 2013, Ngeno died in a chopper accident that occurred at 4:45 pm on February 28 in Chepkiep area of Mosop constituency, Nandi County.
The Kipsigis leader died along with five others, including his photographer, Nick Kosgei. The 25-year-old photographer had changed his WhatsApp status a few minutes before midnight, three hours before he collapsed.
How many children did Johanna Ngeno have?
The Emurua Dikirr MP had one wife, Nayianoi Ntutu Ngeno, and they were blessed with two beautiful girls.
The loving father often posted about his children, celebrated them, and his last post about the two little angels was on February 22, during their mother’s birthday.
Ngeno posted an adorable video of his wife, and their two children during Ntutu’s birthday, wishing him all the best.
The loving husband showed his love on his special day. In the video, the member of parliament fed his wife cake before feeding their children and family members present.
The loving man then gave Ntutu flowers before kissing her. He had attached the video to the song Otile Brown of Heart’s Choice featuring Sanaipei. The video resurfaced after Ngeno’s death, leaving Kenyans devastated.
