A Message of Comfort from ODM
In their official statement, ODM acknowledged the pain and heartbreak facing Dr. Mumbi and her loved ones.
“The ODM Party extends its heartfelt condolences to the family of our dedicated member, Dr. Mumbi Ng’aru, following the passing of her beloved husband, Dr. Ng’aru, on Good Friday (Friday, 18/4/25). We pray that God grants her and the entire family strength and comfort during this difficult time of mourning.”
The statement highlights the party’s appreciation for Dr. Mumbi’s unwavering loyalty and service, emphasizing that she has stood by the party’s principles through the years.
Dr. Mumbi: A Veteran ODM Pillar
Dr. Mumbi Ng’aru is not a new name within the Orange Democratic Movement. Known for her years of public service, policy leadership, and active involvement in governance, she has been a strong female figure in ODM’s political history. She previously served as the Chairperson of the Public Service Commission (PSC) and was also a vocal advocate for devolution and women’s empowerment.
Her husband, the late Dr. Ng’aru, remained a quiet pillar beside her throughout her political and public journey. His passing leaves a personal void not just for the family, but for those who admired the strength of their partnership.
Outpouring of Support and Prayers
Messages of sympathy have continued to flow from ODM supporters, leaders, and political allies, many recognizing the contributions of both Dr. Mumbi and her late husband. The ODM fraternity has pledged to stand by her during this trying period, offering both moral and emotional support.
A Life Remembered, A Family in Mourning
As plans for the final send-off begin, many have remembered Dr. Ng’aru as a man who supported change from the sidelines and stood behind one of the most respected women in public service. For ODM and all who knew the family, this is a time of reflection and solidarity.
Dr. Mumbi now walks through a season of grief, but she does not walk alone. The ODM family remains firmly by her side.
