Collins Bundi drowned at River Nyamindi (r). How old was Bundi when he died? Collins Bundi met his fate seven days ago while enjoying a swim at River Nyamindi.
The 15-year-old boy’s body was found and retrieved 15 kilometres from where he drowned by divers in Kirinyaga county. “I have been looking for this boy, and I was lucky to find him today. He was stranded on a tree, stuck with one leg.
I went where his body was, and I removed him. It has not been easy as there are places where there were caves, other places were rocky and with trees, but I continue to press on, and God enables me to get out,” Dan Murango, a diver, said. How did Bundi’s mum find out about son’s death? Bundi had cycled over 25 kilometres from Kerugoya with his friend to swim in the water body.
