Two people died on the spot after they were struck by lightning in two separate incidents following a heavy downpour in Kakamega County.
In the first incident Rosemary Muramba, a 62-year-old died on the spot after she was struck at Ingusi village in Mumias West Sub County.
The mother of seven was reportedly walking to the kitchen from her main house on Thursday evening to prepare a meal when tragedy struck.
“It was around 7 pm and my wife was headed to the kitchen to prepare supper when the lightning struck her. We discovered her lifeless body moments later,” said Jackson Muramba, the deceased’s husband.
