Mr. Arnold Okaka, a Kenya-Stockholmer, has passed away. According to KSB sources, Okaka passed away yesterday after a long illness. What is not clear is whether he died in hospital or in his apartment flat. This is because he was last located in his flat on Saturday, the 6th of March, in the evening.
A contact told KSB that Mr. Okaka met some friends in his flat that Sato evening and one friend even suggested that he make some food so that they could eat together. This was done. KSB has learnt that Mr. Okaka has been ailing for some time, having undergone surgery on the back on more than one ocassion because of illness. The back ache he developed is said to have forced him to quit his job at the post office.
The Kenyan, who hails from Gem in Nyanza province, is said to have been very week on Saturday. “One could see that he was not feeling well”, a contact told KSB. The Kenyan, who is said to have been 60 years old, was not very common among the Kenya-Stockholm community and lived a very private life. Further information about his funeral will be released later.
KSB sends deep condolences to the family of the late Okaka at this difficult time of great shock and sorrow. We hope that the family will have the courage to cope with the tragedy that has struck without notice.
