Former Mbooni MP and ex-Cabinet Minister Joseph Konzolo Munyao has died while receiving treatment at Nairobi Hospital, his family has confirmed.
His brother, Jacob Mutua Munyao, said he was admitted to the hospital’s Karen branch on Friday with what was described as “nerve complications,” a recurring issue following a medical procedure he had undergone years before.
Munyao served as Minister for Livestock and Fisheries Development under President Mwai Kibaki from 2003 to 2007. He represented Mbooni Constituency for three non-consecutive terms during his political career.
He is survived by four children.
Makueni Governor Mutula Kilonzo Jr. expressed his condolences, noting that Munyao served with “dedication and humility.”
