A FOURTEEN-year-old son to the late professor Abel Gitau Mugenda has appealed to well-wishers for financial support to join secondary school.
Documents in possession of Hot News reveal the son was born on July 13, 2007 at Avenue Hospital in Nairobi.
According to an admission letter in our possession, Mugenda Eric Gitau has been admitted to Nairobi school.
He is supposed to report on August 2,2021.
He scored 401 marks in last year’s KCPE.
He is a former pupil of ACK ST James Academy in Kiambu town.
His mother Linah Nyarua Waithera is jobless and cannot afford the school fees.
“I was asked by the elder brother to my husband to give the family a fee structure. I did before the professor was buried but there was no support.” Waithera said.
A source that sought anonymity for fear of his life said Nyarua was a former house girl to Professor Abel Mugenda .
Nyarua did not confirm this allegation but said the late Professor’s family knows her “personally”
The source told Hot News that Nyarua was living in opulence before the death of Professor Abel Mugenda.
” She was living in a rented house with Abel Mugenda where the rent was Ksh 60,000. She had to move out after his death.” the source said.
The late Professor of Statistics and Research once lectured at the USIU.
He allegedly committed suicide in Nyeri on January 5 2019.
Hot News has obtained exclusive photos of the late professor with Nyarua and their son.
