National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang'ula honored his late brother, James Mukhwana Wetang'ula, during a family burial in Bungoma County. He described his brother as a devout Catholic, a trusted advisor, and a private individual who dedicated his life to teaching and community service. The speaker noted this loss follows the recent passing of their mother, marking a difficult period for the family.
Mukhwana, the firstborn son, was remembered for choosing a humble life away from politics, unlike his brothers in public office. Westlands MP Tim Wanyonyi called him a steady family pillar. Wetang'ula used the occasion to advocate for regional unity among Western Kenya leaders, referencing stalled local projects like the Nzoia Sugar Company. He expressed gratitude for the public support shown to his family.
