The Miss World Kenya Nyamira County Mercy Mokeira who got to national spotlight after her photos with Lang’ata Women Prison inmates went viral passed on 28th, January 2017.
The 23-year-old vibrant model died at North Kinangop Hospital where she was undergoing treatment for an undisclosed disease.
“She complained of muscle pains but preliminary results failed to show the disease she was suffering from. We then sent for more tests but she died before we got the results back,” Josphat Momanyi, her father, said.
