Wainaina died while undergoing treatment for a rare medical condition that had affected him for a while.
A member of the County Assembly (MCA) in Murang’a, Mark Wainaina, has died. The demise of the politician has struck a blow to the United Democratic Alliance Party (UDA) given that this was one of its key members in the Mt Kenya county.
Wainaina died while undergoing treatment for a rare medical condition that had affected him for a while. He was diagnosed with a severe pulmonary disease that had caused his lungs to fail, prompting the family to take him to the hospital.
”It is with a heavy heart that I share the news I never thought I’d have to write: we have lost my best friend, Hon. Mark Wainaina. Despite his incredible fight and the tireless efforts of the medical team, Mark passed away peacefully, as confirmed by the final ECG report today,” Wainaina’s best friend shared.
Wainana, who was a nominated MCA, was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit at one of the hospitals after his condition worsened.
Further confirming his demise was Nominated MCA Sharleen Wambui Maina who wrote “Just because he carried the name Hon before his name! He was abused, he was tormented, he was ridiculed and he was called all manner of names! So what was his mistake exactly? A man from a very humble background representing the PWDs in Murang’a county assembly!!!”
“And the lord asked me, so what will you say to those who abused him and ridiculed him in his time of need? And I said to the lord, give them plenty of peace, maintain them in good health and bless them, Lord….Amen! Rest well Mark Wainaina,” she stated.
