Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 73143, member: 636"] Kenya's Orange Democratic Movement has mourned the death of Beryl Achieng' Odinga, whose passing arrived barely six weeks after her brother Raila Odinga succumbed. The opposition party honored the low-profile civil servant as someone who deliberately avoided political limelight despite her family's prominence, choosing instead to dedicate herself to administrative roles across multiple institutions. Family spokeswoman Ruth Odinga confirmed Beryl died during hospital care, leaving behind three children and several siblings. The deceased made her mark as Mutare's inaugural Black town clerk in Zimbabwe before later chairing Nairobi's water utility. Her relatives drew comfort from spiritual conviction while acknowledging the profound absence created by losing two family members within such a compressed timeframe, with the movement pledging continued support during the bereavement period.
