The bad news has finally been confirmed. Dandora based activist Caroline Mwatha is dead. In fact she has been dead for a long time. Her body was taken to City mortuary sometimes last week.
News that she is dead have elicited different reactions with Canadian based lawyer Miguna Miguna leading Kenyans in paying tribute to her.
“My deep-felt condolences to the family of Caroline Mwatha. Her brutal murder proves that tyranny consumes all patriots, whether they are perceived to be radical or just ordinary citizens trying to improve the material conditions around them. Join the struggle against tyranny.” Miguna said on Twitter.
The following are some of the notable messages on social media:
So sad. May comrade Caroline Mwatha Rest in Power. https://t.co/ZB1h54ygmm
