A youthful man collapsed and died on Monday outside a wines and spirits shop in Donholm, Nairobi in unclear circumstances.
Witnesses told Umoja News that the unidentified man had entered Jawa Wines and Spirits at 9am. It is unclear whether he ordered alcoholic drinks, or not.
When police arrived at the scene, he was confirmed dead.
Health officers dressed in personal protective equipment fumigated the body before it was loaded onto a police van and taken to a Nairobi morgue.
The cause of the man’s death remains unclear. However, speculation was rife among onlookers that he might have succumbed to Covid-19 complications.
Buruburu OCPD, Adamson Bungei, did not answer calls from the media as he said he was in a meeting and would get back after two minutes.
Subsequent communication to him went unanswered.
