Itumbi is mourning the sudden death of his friend and journalist Casper Waithaka who died in an accident.

“Casper Waithaka, Go well bro. Go well. Life is damn short.  - I wish there was a way to stop the accident. I cannot even pen my tribute now. Later bro. God strengthen your family. “The Lowest ebb is the turn of the tide.” -Henry Wadsworth Longfellow,” wrote Itumbi on his social media pages.

He died after his car veered off the road at the Athi River-Namanga interchange as he tried to avoid hitting a boda boda rider.

At the time of his death, Mr. Waithaka who formerly worked for the Nation Media Group (NMG) worked at the East African Portland Cement as the Communications Officer.

Death of Fred Owich

This comes just a few days after the Digital Advisor in the Office of the President mourned the death of Migori Woman Representative Pamela Odhiambo’s body guard Fred Owich.

Owich, who worked as the bodyguard and driver to the Migori Woman Representative, is reported to have lost control of the vehicle while he tried to avoid hitting a boda-boda.

The aide died on the spot while the Woman Representative sustained chest injuries and was rushed to a Kisumu hospital and later flown to Nairobi for further treatment.

In an emotional post, Itumbi recalled the good old days when he grew up with Owich, saying that it was sad to learn that his friend, the ever smiling and happy guy was gone.
