On the mend: Ken Okoth’s latest public appearance


Kibra MP Ken Okoth has been pictured in high spirits on the sidelines of the 206th Unesco Executive Board meeting in Paris, France.

Okoth joined the Kenyan delegation to Unesco and had a discussion about education in Kibra constituency with the permanent secretary Early Learning and Basic Education, Dr Belio Kipsang.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs Twitter account shared photos of all smiley Okoth, a sharp contrast from the photo he had shared last month on how chemo drugs had affected his skin.

Two days earlier, Okoth had to clarify that he is still alive after a blogger spread fake news on Twitter.

The MP has been undergoing cancer treatment in Europe for stage four colorectal cancer (colon cancer).

Johnson Muthoga wrote, “Praying for your quick recovery, Mhesh, Kibra people need you back.”

Silas Rabah added, “Great stuff man!! The whole country is praying for your quick recovery. Let us know your return schedule so that we can receive you in style at the airport.”
