Kenya Stockholmer Mr. Fanuel Okoth is dead. The Kenyan died last night in Kenya at his home village in Yimbo, Siaya district, where he has been recuperating following a stroke attack which left him half way paralysed.
Mr. Okoth, who was over 70 years old, came to Sweden in the 70s from the former Soviet Union where he was studying. At the time of his death, a group of Kenyans were planning to get him to Sweden so that he could get proper medical treatment.
After he suffered a stroke a few months ago, he was taken to a local hospital but he soon made a dramatic recovery, prompting his relatives to return him home for further care.
Mr. Okoth will be missed by Kenyans who knew him. He was very vociferous on various issues. His death comes barely a month after Mr. Onyango Sumba, a former Kenya-Stockholmer, passed away at Kenyatta National hospital. Mr. Sumba was buried last month.
Okoth Oswe
May God rest his soul in eternal peace.
May his soul rest in peace.
A year has past, hope you are happy now grandfather.
