Wrangles rock Kalembe Ndile’s burial plans

What you need to know:

  • Contentious proposals included draping Ndile’s casket with a Wiper-branded cloth and hoisting a Wiper party flag at the burial site. 
  • The proposal angered Ndile’s widow, Magdalene, and the committee coordinating the burial preparations.


Wrangles have rocked burial plans for former Kibwezi MP Kalembe Ndile, with the family resisting attempts by politicians to take charge of the event.

Ndile died at a Nairobi hospital last week aged 57 years.
