Bishop Alexander Kipsang Muge: Ultimate Price.
It is now thirty-four years since the death of then vocal ACK Bishop of Eldoret Diocese Alexander Muge that occurred through a tragic and suspicious road accident near Kipkaren river along Webuye -Eldoret highway.
At the time, the late Muge was a fierce government critic and was among prominent religious leaders who had joined forces with a section of politicians, academics, lawyers and other civil society groups, in agitating for a return to multiparty politics in the country. His death was largely seen as a political assassination as Kenya grappled with one of the darkest periods of its post-independence history. What were the circumstances surrounding his demise and how did the vocal man of the cloth meet his death? Duncan Khaemba speaks to a survivor who witnessed the late Bishop Muge breathe his last, his children who were teenagers at the time as well as a section of church leaders who knew him at a personal level.
