Former Lugari Member of Parliament Cyrus Jirongo died on December 13, 2025, following a fatal road accident along the Nairobi–Nakuru highway. The once-powerful businessman was driving his Mercedes-Benz car when he collided head-on with a bus. He was 64.

Gloucester City Council has applied for millions of pounds of financial help from central government

What happened?
