Senator Beth Mugo's Husband Cremated in a Private Ceremony in Nairobi

Nominated Senator Beth Mugo’s husband Nicholas Muratha Mugo has been cremated, a day after his death.

The Standard reports that the remains of ambassador Mugo were cremated in a private ceremony held at Kariokor Crematorium in Nairobi on Friday.

The 86-year-old career diplomat and businessman died at the Nairobi Hospital on Thursday morning after a long illness.

President Kenyatta in a message of condolence described Mugo as a patriotic and dedicated person, who was among the few Kenyans that played a leading role in laying a firm foundation for the country’s progress.

“We appreciate that during our early days of independence, he was able to represent our nation as a diplomat in the United Kingdom and later at the UN General Assembly where, together with other Kenyans, he effectively represented Kenya’s interests at the global arena,” said Kenyatta.

The deceased served as Kenya’s ambassador in several countries including France, Yugoslavia, The Vatican, Ethiopia, and Sudan.

Mugo was among the beneficiaries of the airlift scholarship fund established by the late Tom Mboya in partnership with former US president John F. Kennedy to take young bright Africans to the US and Canada for further studies. He studied history and political science at Warren Wilson College in the US.

Hongera sana kwa Hayati Mboya na Kenndedy kwa kuwasaidia vijana kutoka nchi ya kenya na kupata elimu.

Vitendo vizuri vya Rais Kennedy vilimwezesha babake Barack Obama kuzaliwa na kuwa rais wa kwanza Mmarekani asiye wa asili ya Ulaya tu.

Pia, Wangari Maathai alikuwa mwanamke wa kwanza wa bara letu kupokea tuzo ya Nobel. Haya yote yalikuwa matunda ya Mboya na Kennedy.

Kennedy alipochaguliwa kuwa rais wa Marekani 1960, alianzisha kundi la vijana kutoka Marekani ambao walikwenda kutoa msaada katika nchi za kigeni unaoitwa Peace Corps.
WnaPeace Corps, waliongeza uhusiano wa nchi ya Marekani na nchi za kigeni kwa kufanya kazi pamoja na nchi changa zilizokuwa zimekata minyororo na ukoloni.

Hongereni sana Kennedy na Mboya kwa kazi nzuri sana mliyofanyia vijana wa Kenya. Kama si msaada huu, babake Barack Obama hangeweza kufika Marekani na kukutana na mamake ili Barack azaliwe na baadaye kuwa rais wa Marekani.

Ironically poor Kenyans continue to spend fortunes to bury their dead. Meanwhile Mugos, Njonjos, and Corrymores opt for cheap cremation.

@Mumbi, very astute observation.Could it be that the rich who are generally enlightened people are likely to be more rational and objective than the rest of us?And thus are also more likely to shade off retrogressive customs...
I personally dont see the wisdom of spending so much resources on someone who is gone for ever. These resources,could go along way helping the loved ones left behind. Pompous,and flashy send offs do not necessarily translate to more respect for the dead.What the dead did while alive is what sustains their legacy.Most importantly, how they touch people in a positive manner.

My wife Mūmbî speaks the truth by criticizing hungry billionaire Kenyans at home of fortune wastage through expensive burials.But she should have first advised the diasporans to stop their equally costly habit of EXPORTING CORPSES to Kenya as if they are going to resurrect or be fed to hungry mourners/importers.Money raised during the mourning period should be wisely invested by deceased’s direct(wife and children) relatives after cremating the useless corpse.

The wealth left if any should be managed by wife and children! No relative should poke their nose in a relationship that they were never a part of from the beginning! Let’s stop the greedy folks!

Secondly, the silly African tradition of dragging corpses all over the world must cease immediately! What purpose is it to send a dead body 20k miles for burial?

You are right @mumbi! That poverty of mind extends to those in the diaspora as well! Some of you are evacuating widows from the 1/8 acre piece of land left by the dead to feed the living and then taking custody of your brother’s wife’s land! Sad but true! Kikuyus and Luhyas are the worst in this property mess!

My name is Selicia Bramsen and after being in relationship with him for seven years, he broke up with me, I did everything possible to bring him back but all was in vain. I wanted him back so much because of the love I have for him and I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I contacted a spell caster called DR ISIKOLO that could help me cast a spell to bring him back but I am the type that never believed in spell, I had no choice than to try it, I mailed the spell caster, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before two days, that my ex will return to me before three days, he cast the spell and surprisingly in the second day, it was around 4pm. My ex called me and we resolved the differences and we are happy together now. Anybody could need the help of the spell caster, his email: isikolosolutionhome@gmail.com or his WhatsApp/Viber him on: +2348133261196
