Gakuru's horrific demise
Dr Patrick Wahome Gakuru had only served as Nyeri’s third governor for 79 days before meeting his horrendous death in a tragic road crash, along the Nyeri-Nairobi highway.
During a public inquest of his shocking death, statements presented by various witnesses painted a picture of how the governor slowly, painfully died, as he remained trapped in his official vehicle with a guard rail piercing through him.
