Fridah Warau Kamuyu, the lady who drowned in a dam at Juja, Kiambu County, with her male friend was laid to rest on Wednesday.

Kamuyu, 23, died after a car she was in with Titus Kiiru, a 39-year-old Kiambu businessman, plunged into a dam at Titanic area on January 18.

A program of the burial ceremony says Kamuyu was born in Kagwanja, Mathioya, Murang’a County and raised alongside four siblings.

“Fridah was brought up well by her parents, she was an obedient girl,” the eulogy reads,  adding that she was baptized at ACK St Paul Kagwana Church in 2006.

After completing high school in 2019, the family says Kamuyu enrolled for a course in Hotel Catering and Management.

“God gave us Fridah and has taken her away,” the family added.

On the fateful day, Kamuyu and Kiiru are reported to have been together inside a Nissan X-trail vehicle which they had parked at the edge of the dam that is a popular hangout spot for revellers.

The vehicle would however plunge into the dam at around 7 pm under unclear circumstances.

Kamuyu, who was the first to be retrieved from the dam, could not be immediately identified since she had no identification documents in her possession.

Kiiru was identified by his family soon after the vehicle was retrieved from the water and images that clearly showed the car’s registration number were shared in the media.

Prior to Kamuyu’s identification, the Kiiru’s wife, Margaret Kiiru, had appealed to members of the public to help her trace the family of the lady who died alongside her husband in order to have closure.

He was buried on Friday in a mute ceremony, with his eulogy just three paragraphs long and the tribute noticeably missing key moments of his life such as when he got married, how many children he sired during his lifetime and when and how he met his unfortunate demise.

The eulogy only detailed his birth, immediate family, education and occupation.
