Thank you for the clarification. Here’s the corrected version:
Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has expressed deep sorrow over the death of former Cabinet Minister and Lugari MP Cyrus Jirongo, who died in a road accident along the Nairobi–Nakuru Highway.
In a statement, Gachagua recalled Jirongo’s service to Lugari Constituency between 1997–2002 and 2007–2013, describing him as a dedicated public servant.
“It is with deep pain I have learnt of the passing of former Cabinet Minister and ex-Lugari MP Hon. Cyrus Jirongo following a tragic road accident,” Gachagua said. “I pass my deepest sympathies to his family, friends, the people of Lugari and western Kenya, and the whole nation as we mourn Hon. Cyrus Jirongo. May Almighty God rest his soul in eternal peace and perpetual light shine upon him forever.”
Jirongo’s death has drawn condolences from across the country, reflecting his long-standing influence in Kenya’s political landscape.
