Former Meru Governor Kiraitu Murungi.[File, Standard]
I seldom make statements of a personal nature. I know many might find that confounding because every opinion expressed here is personal, but I’d like to condole with the family of Kiraitu Murungi.
A sketch of the former Governor of Meru that appeared here last Friday was, obviously, printed before news of his bereavement was made public. More conscientious readers reached out to rebuke me for what they saw as “inappropriate” reporting on a man who was mourning his last-born daughter, Anita Kendi Murungi.
As a lawyer of great standing, I won’t mention his Harvard training. Kiraitu has appeared many times in this column’s various incarnations over the last 20 years. He will attest that not a word run on this page is actuated by malice.
