Magdalene Kalembe, wife of the late Kibwezi MP Kalembe Ndile, passes away. She was serving as a nominated MCA of Makueni under the Maendeleo Chap Chap Party.
Magdalene died on Tuesday night while receiving treatment at MP Shah Hospital in Nairobi.
Magdalene’s illness began on Thursday last week. According to Sam Kinyingi, a close family member, she was rushed to the hospital after falling critically ill.
Despite the best efforts of the medical team, she succumbed to her illness a few days later.
The passing of Magdalene is particularly poignant given the family’s recent loss history. In 2021, her husband Kalembe Ndile, a charismatic and well-known figure in Kenyan politics, passed away.
Kalembe Ndile was celebrated for his vibrant political career and his dedication to the people of Kibwezi, often advocating for the underprivileged and fighting for the rights of his constituents.
