Detectives are currently investigating the mysterious death of a Nairobi-based priest who passed away just hours after checking into a lodging with his girlfriend.

The deceased has been identified as Joseph Kariuki Wanjiku, a 43-year-old priest from St. Peters Ruai. He checked into Monalisa Hotel Delview in Gatanga on Friday, July 8, 2023, alongside a lady.

According to police reports, the priest suddenly experienced dizziness, prompting the lady to contact the hotel management for assistance.

However, the unfortunate turn of events continued as Kariuki was pronounced dead upon arrival at the hospital.
