Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 76673, member: 636"] ODM secretary general Edwin Sifuna dropped a statement mourning former Lugari MP Cyrus Jirongo after the politician died in a head-on collision with a bus while driving solo back to his rural home around 3 a.m. along the Nairobi-Nakuru Highway near Karai in Naivasha. The party called him an influential figure who shaped Kenya's political landscape through his time representing Lugari from 1997 to 2002 and again from 2007 to 2013, plus his cabinet role and work with the National Super Alliance opposition coalition before the 2017 election. Rift Valley traffic officer Sarah Chumo confirmed the crash details while investigators looked into what caused the wreck that destroyed his vehicle. ODM sent condolences to his family and the Western Kenya community he served, saying his bold approach to politics and entrepreneurial spirit left a lasting mark on the country's democratic journey.
