Speaker of the National Assembly Moses Wetang’ula has sent a message of condolence to the family and friends of Ol Kalou MP David Njuguna Kiaraho, who passed away on March 29, 2026 at around 1:00 am while receiving treatment at Nairobi Hospital.
In his message, Wetang’ula described the late legislator as a hardworking and dedicated leader who served Parliament with commitment throughout his three terms in office. He noted that Kiaraho was actively involved in key parliamentary committees at the time of his death.
“Until his untimely demise, the late Kiaraho served the National Assembly with diligence and commitment as a Member of the Departmental Committee on Transport and Infrastructure and the Procedure and House Rules Committee,” said the Speaker.
Kiaraho had reportedly been unwell for some time and had sought treatment both locally and abroad before his passing.
Wetang’ula also assured that Parliament would work closely with the family to organize a dignified send-off.
He revealed that a funeral preparation committee has already been formed, with Kinangop MP Kwenya Thuku appointed as chair, assisted by Nyandarua Woman Representative Faith Gitau.
Born on October 2, 1963, Kiaraho was a trained architect and a graduate of the University of Nairobi, where he earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Architecture.
Before joining politics, he built a successful career as a professional architect and served as Principal Architect at Archgrid Systems, contributing to major infrastructure projects.
He entered politics in 2013 when he won the Ol Kalou parliamentary seat on a The National Alliance (TNA) ticket under the Jubilee coalition.
He later defended his seat in both the 2017 and 2022 General Elections, maintaining a strong focus on infrastructure development and legislative duties.
His passing marks the end of a decade-long career in Parliament, where he was known for his quiet but impactful role in committee work and public service.
