The death toll from the poisonous illicit brew in Hodi Hodi village in Bahati, Nakuru County has climbed to 10.
This is after two more people passed away while receiving treatment at Nakuru County Referral Hospital on Thursday.
The 10 victims include nine men and an expectant woman who turned blind before her death. Nine more survivors are still admitted at the hospital, according to Nakuru County Chief Officer of Medical Services Solomon Sirma.
“Two of those admitted have also become blind and we will be referring them to the eye unit for a further checkup,” Sirma told journalists.
Earlier, Sirma indicated that 16 other people who had consumed the poisonous Chang’aa were treated and discharged.
The incident came into the limelight after four bodies of the victims were picked from different locations in the village on Tuesday.
The fifth reveler died while undergoing treatment at Bahati Sub-County Hospital the same day while three more victims passed away on Wednesday.
Health officials said the victims were vomiting and complained of stomach aches. They were being treated for alcohol intoxication and organophosphate poisoning.
Rift Valley Regional Commissioner George Natembeya on Thursday ordered the closure of all wines and spirits shops in Bahati Sub-County following the tragedy. He announced the move after a meeting with local administrators.
Does the boy who wanted me…
Does the boy who wanted me to clarify those muuaji Raila has killed know the only importers and distributors of methanol/poison are muuaji Raila and cannibal Joho?He can contact Johana Walker(John Natembea) to get the names of the 10 who are yet to be buried/cremated.The Kaguithi doesn’t know he might be next.
Calf/Njau and Ejaculater…
Calf/Njau and Ejaculater/Muita are barking that I am spoiling the already dirty name of muuaji Raila.Maybe they were born after December 31/2007 when savage Raila declared WE MUST MAKE THIS COUNTRY UNGOVERNABLE which resulted to 1300 deaths and 600000 IDPs.I hope prosecutor Khan will consider reviving that case and charge muuaji Raila accordingly.Moooo and Muita should also know I don’t register births and deaths.Muchawi Raila has never denied killing Kenyans and sponsoring 07/08 PEV and I fail to understand who these tumutu are to defend him.The truth is he has earned billions being payment for killing the same Kenyans.
@menye! 1300 dead mostly in…
@menye! 1300 dead mostly in Eldoret is an issue fir DP Ruto to answer. Raila may have said @unfovernable” but he did not tell Ruroto go kill the kikuyu women and children by burning them in a church!
Whatever Ruto did will never be forgiven! Buteexan forgive Raila for saying ungovernable!
For the 600,000 idps?? This one also Ruto got the answer! He, ask Joshua Sang to get on thevanacukar radio and announce to all the kalenjins to get out and kick those they called mandondowa out of the Rift Valley. Ruto went on TV and announced that for them to expel the Kikuyus out of Eldoret, they needed to have the political power so they can wrongly use it to their benefits! Kikuyus???!!! Wake up and deny Ruto he chance to kill mre of you after 2022!!
The kalenjins under the direction of DP forced people out of their land (that is when ruto stole 100 acres from Mzee Muteshi), and then Ruto told the kalenjins to forcefully occupy that stolen land!
No idps have been able to go back to Eldoret to get their land back since 2007/8 massacre!
You can tell those kikuyu voting for Ruto that once Ruto get the government behind him after 2022, they will all be killed by Ruto himself! This is exactly what Ruto has said and is recorded.
It is only those drunk kikuyu youth who seems to forget the 2097/8 kikuyu massacre in Eldoret! It was a DP Ruto massacre and blood of all who who died remain in Ruto’s dirty hands!
The Ruto’s bottom-down…
The Ruto’s bottom-down economics to keep Kenyans poor is working here alright! Where is MP Kimani ngunjiri, sudi, Murkomen, Wahome etc? They must have all been treated for alcoholism and sent home to recover !
