Mwendwa Ngilu: Husband To The Only Kenyan Woman To Vie For Presidency Is Dead

A few hours ago, the body of the late Engineer Mwendwa Ngilu husband to Health Minister Charity Ngilu arrived in Nairobi from South Africa.

Mr Ngilu is said to have died while undergoing treatment in South Africa. His wife, Health Minister Mrs Ngilu, was at his bedside. The couple have three children and run a prosperous electrical conduit manufacturing company based in Nairobi no doubt inspired by Mr Ngilu’s engineering background.

Charity Ngilu the late Mwendwa's widow, holds the distinction as the only Kenyan woman to vie for the Presidency, which she did in 1997 when she came a respectable fourth, behind Moi, Kibaki and Raila in that order, a result that was still bitterly disappointing to her supporters hailing from across ethnic lines who had believed that she was a strong contender to unseat President Moi.

Then Kanu point man in Coast province, Shariff Nassir had written Ngilu off shortly before the election as a candidate whose reputation was mainly in media circles and did not reach grass roots support. His comment proved to be hugely correct.

Read full details on the late Mr Ngilu’s death.
