MESSAGE OF CONDOLENCE TO THE FAMILY, FRIENDS, AND COLLEAGUES OF THE LATE NURSE CHARLES MUTUNGI
It is with deep sorrow and immense shock that the Union has received the heartbreaking news of the untimely demise of Nurse Charles Mutungi. Nurse Mutungi, who served with exemplary dedication as the Deputy Sub-County Public Health Nurse in Matungulu Sub-County, Machakos County, tragically passed away yesterday following a road traffic accident.
We understand that words offer little solace in the face of such a monumental loss, but we wish to convey our sincerest sympathies to his grieving family, his immediate colleagues in Matungulu, and all those who had the privilege of knowing and working alongside him. The news of his departure has sent ripples of grief through our professional ranks.
Nurse Mutungi was a respected healthcare giver within the public health sector, known for his commitment to community health and well-being. His professional life was defined by the principles of the nursing pledge maintaining utmost respect for human life and providing dedicated healthcare service, regardless of personal considerations.
His sudden exit leaves a void that will be difficult to fill. We remember him not only for his professional acumen but also for his character, mentorship, and unwavering dedication to the nursing profession in Kenya. He was a shining example of the professionalism and diligence that the Nurses and Midwives Act, Cap 257, seeks to uphold.
During this period of mourning, we want to assure the family that the Union stands with you. We share in your pain and sorrow. We pray that the Almighty God grants you the strength, comfort, and fortitude to bear this irreplaceable loss.
May his soul rest in eternal peace, and may his legacy of service continue to inspire all healthcare professionals across Machakos County and our Nation.
Kenya National Union of Nurses and Midwives.
