Former Bomachoge Chache MP Simeon Nyaundi Ogari died at his Karen home in Nairobi on Monday night after a long illness.

According to his long-serving Personal Assistant, Edison Onduso, Ogari was a humble gentleman who did things professionally.

“I’ve known Ogari since I was a young boy and I can confirm that he is a good person”.

On her part, Nominated Senator Essy Okenyuri said she learned of Ogari’s death with profound grief and that Ogari touched hearts throughout his life.

“His legacy will remain with us for a long time to come,it has been my honor to have known him” she said

Ogari, a Quantity Surveyor by profession, was elected Bomachoge MP in 2009 after trouncing area MP the late Joel Onyancha in a by-election.

Bomachoge constituency was later divided into two, Bomachoge Borabu and Bomachoge Chache, where he was elected as the first MP.
