There are unconfirmed reports that former Cabinet Minister and long-serving Mbooni MP, Joseph Konzolo Munyao, has passed away, just a year after the death of his wife, Agnes Konzolo.
Munyao, who served as Minister for Livestock & Fisheries Development and represented Mbooni Constituency for several terms, is a respected figure in Machakos County politics. His sudden passing, if confirmed, would mark the end of a distinguished political career spanning decades.
While social media and local sources have been abuzz with news of his alleged death, no credible media outlet or family statement has yet confirmed the reports. Observers suggest that the circulating news may be linked to the recent loss of his wife, leading to confusion in the public domain.
Munyao’s legacy includes significant contributions to agricultural policies and constituency development during his tenure in Parliament. Should the reports be verified, his death will undoubtedly prompt widespread mourning among political colleagues, constituents, and friends.
For now, authorities and family representatives have not issued any official statement, leaving the news unverified. Channel 15 News will continue to monitor developments and provide updates as more information becomes available.
