@FQanini said: "Death Announcement appearing on page 49 of today’s Daily Nation. Today is 7th February, the funeral is to take place on the 6th of February. But that’s not the point."

"Daily Nation, did Jimmy Wanjigi die without our knowledge?" @RobertAlai said.

@SirSilvesta said: "To me,it looks like Jimmy Wanjigi published this himself. He paid for it."

"From the father, children, wife, home, company it's all Wanjigi. Apart from the name change to Wanjagi," @Karanimutonga said.

@chegebonie said "It's not funny..all the names apart from Wanjagi..looks like a message being sent or just a coincidence."

 In a statement on Wednesday, Nation Media Group apologised to the family of Wanjigi for any harm caused by the obituary.
"We do not condone such publication which clearly goes against our editorial policy. We have taken immediate action against those responsible."

The media house, in a statement, said they have reported the matter to the police for further investigations.

Wanjigi has been in the limelight after he decided to support Opposition leader Raila Odinga.

He accused accused President Uhuru Kenyatta's administration of intending to execute him, adding the attacks are because of his support for Raila,

"It's very sad that [these] people are attacking me today yet their government was formed here. Raila and Uhuru shook hands here in a show of peace," he said.
