President William Ruto has sent a message of condolence to the family of Elijah Osiemo.

The Nyamaiya Ward Member of the County Assembly (MCA) doubled up as the Nyamira County Assembly leader of the Majority.

Nairobi Review reported that Elijah Osiemo died following an accident, that happened along Maai Mahiu - Naivasha road.

He was in the company of two colleagues who got injured.

In his message, Ruto said he prays for the quick recovery of the injured MCAs.

"We join the people of Nyamira in mourning the passing of County Majority Leader Elijah Osiemo following a road accident Monday evening. We pray for the quick recovery of his Deputy Duke Masira and nominated MCA Priscilla Nyatichi, who are in hospital undergoing treatment," said Ruto.

On Monday, Nyamira governor Amos Nyaribo termed the fallen MCA as an industrious person.

"I have learned with shock and deep sadness of the sudden and tragic news of the demise of Nyamaiya MCA Elijah Osiemo in a tragic road crash along the Maai Mahiu Naivasha road this afternoon."

Elijah Osiemo was elected on the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) party, associated with former Internal security Caninet Secretary (CS) Fred Matiang'i.

He was elected for his first term in August, 2023.
