Ng’eno once served as Member of Parliament for Emurua Dikirr until he died suddenly in a helicopter crash that claimed the lives of five other people, including the pilot.

He was buried on March 6 in Mogondo, Emurua Dikirr, in a ceremony attended by President William Ruto, Deputy President Kithur Kindiki and thousands of mourners.

After his death, his widow Naiyanoi Ntutu received support to run for the parliamentary seat, but withdrew from the race on March 23.

His decision came a few weeks after he received the blessing of his family and Kapkaon elders.

Kenyans online have reacted to Ng’eno’s widow

Here’s what they said:

Erick Macharia: “He is fully capable, he has been brought up and prepared in that environment, he should accept the challenge.”

Biggy Biggy Comrade: “I even support that move very well.”

Sandra Chelangat: “He should be given his master’s seat, Kones died and they gave it to his wife, why shouldn’t Ng’eno do the same?”

Fredrick Manguz: “Why do you want to end this girl? She is too young politically, she has small children. At least let her raise the children first. In 2027 she will see what will happen, even in 2032 we can give her a chance.”
