Mzee Jackson Kibor, a prominent businessman-cum-politician from Uasin Gishu county, is dead. He passed away on Wednesday at an Eldoret hospital where he had been receiving treatment. - @NationAfrica
Confirming the news, Mzee Kibor’s family said he had been battling illness since late 2020 and had been using medical oxygen ever since.
In 2017, Mzee Kibor made headlines after an Eldoret court allowed him to divorce his third wife, only months after divorcing his second wife with whom they had been married for over 50 years. He married a fourth wife soon after. His wife died in the 90s.

There is a reason @amerix, who has become (in)famous on social media for his perceived ‘anti-feminism,’ had capped the word ‘MAN’ throughout his tweet.
Jackson Kibor, 88, had become the unlikely male role model for many Kenyan men — from those half-to-quarter his age — so much so that he was a common social media meme, dispensing advice through implanted quotes (most on “how to deal with women”).

The past 40 years in the Central African Republic (CAR) have been fitful. A UN peacekeeping, Minusca, has been around since 2014, holding a bandage to the country’s wounds. Among the 20 peacekeeping nations, three — Tanzania, Burundi and Rwanda — are East African. - @cobbo3
