Sources close to the governor say he sustained minor injuries, but the timing of the incident has raised questions among locals and political observers.
The memorial, held at Kitale town, drew scores of mourners, including political leaders, family, and residents.
Despite the tragedy, the event proceeded, but many noted the absence of Natembeyea, whose role in the late politician's circle was considered significant.
Insiders reveal that Governor Natembeyea was en route to the memorial when his vehicle collided with another on the Kitale–Eldoret highway.
Emergency services were called immediately, and the governor received on-site medical attention before being taken to a local hospital for observation.
Political analysts suggest that this unexpected absence may affect ongoing alliances in the region.
While some mourners expressed concern for the governor’s health, others wondered whether his absence could impact the formal proceedings and the planned eulogies.
Meanwhile, local leaders filled in for Natembeyea, ensuring that the tribute continued smoothly.
Residents praised the resilience of the community in maintaining dignity during the memorial despite unforeseen disruptions.
What remains unclear is whether Natembeyea will release a public statement regarding his absence and how this may influence his political image locally.
The incident has left many questioning if further road safety measures will be enforced for high-profile officials traveling to sensitive events.
