Former President Mwai Kibaki is well, according to Othaya Member of Parliament Mary Wambui.

Ms Wambui’s reassurance comes after several reports indicated that the retired president had been admitted to Karen hospital.

Some media outlets even went as far as reporting that the former Head of State had died.

Kibaki’s spokesman Ngare Gituku has since dispelled the rumors and now Mary Wambui has confirmed he is well.

Speaking during the UhuRuto Express campaigns in Nyeri county yesterday, Wambui said Kibaki is in good health and sent greeting to Kenyans.

“I wish to relay my greetings from [Kibaki]…he is very well. I was with him this morning,” said the MP.

She was addressing residents of Mukurwe-ini town.

Kibaki suffered a stroke in August last year which saw him admitted to a South African hospital.

He underwent a surgery to remove a blood clot in one of the arteries in his neck.
