A 40-year-old woman has died mysteriously after she collapsed in her bathroom. Doctors say it was cardiac arrest.

The deceased, Vivian Ntimama was the youngest child of the late Kenyan minister, William Ole Ntimama.

Family source says Vivian was preparing to go to work, when she collapsed and died while taking a shower early Friday, January 31, 2020.

She was an officer at the Kenyan Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Sister of the deceased, Lydia says she had complained of chest pain before the fatal attack.

“Doctors confirmed that my sister succumbed to heart attack,” said Lydia.

“Vivian was a hard-working person,” added Lydia, saying: “It is saddening to lose a sibling. However, I would urge online users who find out about someone’s death to always hold that information until family is informed.”

Vivian’s body has since been taken to the Lee Funeral Home as burial plans are being made.

The late Ntimama’s daughter has died aged 40, and is survived by a husband and three children.

Her father, who served as chairman of the Narok County Council for 15 years and as MP and minister for 25 years, died on September 1, 2016. He was aged 86.

Ntimama passed on shortly after retiring to bed in his Narok Motonyi home.
