Kenyan Man Found Dead in His Apartment in Joplin, Missouri

John Wanjohi Aug 03, 2021

A young Kenyan man was recently found dead in his apartment in Joplin, Missouri.

The decomposing body of Christopher Njuguna Mungai was discovered in his apartment. The medical examiner said Njuguna had been deceased for about one week when his body was found.

The Kenyan community in the US is seeking to raise $20,000 to ship his remains to Kenya for burial.

Njuguna has no immediate family in the US and his family in Kenya is distressed, with no answers as to what happened, 

“Without the funds, this cannot happen and Chris would have to be buried in a foreign land by the local government against his family’s wishes, culture, and traditions,” the organizers of the fundraiser said.
