The family had last week announced Waswa as having died at the Aga Khan Hospital where he was being treated for a "short illness".
On Wednesday, members of the public were curious over the extra safety precautions taken during the deceased's burial at the family home in Bungoma.
However, a Facebook post seen by Pulselive.co.ke and posted by Sheila Wetangula confirmed that the late Waswa was among the 50 who have died from Covid19 in Kenya.
"Tony I remember you would give me anything I needed. Covid you are an a**h*le. You robbed me family," Sheila wrote.
Until his death, Waswa served as the Personal assistant to his brother Tim Wanyonyi - who is also the Westlands MP.
Wetangula and Wanyonyi were among the small group of mourners who attended Waswa's brief sendoff.
