Michelle Serut, daughter of the former Mt Elgon MP John Serut is celebrating her late father’s birthday. Michelle took to Twitter and shared a touching post, writing, “A great man was born. Moreover, a man who would be a great father was born. Dad, you would have been 68 today and on a Wednesday just like this, you slept and didn’t wake up. I miss you dad. I go over your pictures and our WhatsApp conversations with all the weird stuff you’d send.

I listen to our song all the time because it reminds me how much you loved me. I hope that wherever you are you’re being told happy birthday and you’re replying with you too because I’m sure you’re just as awkward there as you were here. I love you daddy.“

The former MP passed away in February this year, he succumbed to cancer at Nairobi Hospital. Michelle took to her Twitter account and wrote, ‘Rest in peace to the love of my life. I hate that you won’t see my children. I hate that you won’t get to see the woman I become but I’ll make you proud. I love you dad ❤️”

The late MP was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in January 2020 and had been in and out of hospital. “Hey guys, so a lot of you don’t know me but I’m here requesting your help today. My father’s name is John Serut and he’s been unwell for a while now. He was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in January of 2020. Since then, we’ve had medical bills totalling to about 20 million.” Michelle postedin October last year.
