“Usiniache peke yangu Mungu wangu”: Video of MP Johanna Ngeno listening to gospel song aboard ill-fated chopper surfaces

Photos and videos taken just hours before the fatal helicopter crash that claimed the life of Emurua Dikirr MP Johanna Ngeno have surfaced online, leaving Kenyans shocked and heartbroken.

The tragic crash occurred on Saturday, February 28, in Mosop, Nandi County, killing all six people on board.

The helicopter reportedly burst into flames upon impact at around 4:45pm after departing from Nairobi earlier in the day.

Thick smoke billowed from the wreckage as locals rushed to the scene, attempting to understand what had just unfolded in their quiet community.

Nandi County Police Commander Samuel Mukuusi confirmed the accident and stated that none of the passengers survived.

The confirmation sent shockwaves across the country, with leaders and citizens taking to social media to mourn the outspoken legislator.

Earlier that day, Ngeno had been actively engaging with residents in his constituency. He had visited families affected by recent floods after two young men were swept away by the raging waters of the Mara River.

In a heartfelt message shared online, the MP expressed solidarity with the bereaved families and praised the search and rescue teams working tirelessly to retrieve the bodies.

“My heart goes out to the families affected as they endure this painful and uncertain moment,” he wrote, while urging residents to remain vigilant during the ongoing rainy season, especially around flooded rivers and roads.

One of the videos now circulating widely shows Ngeno seated next to the pilot inside the helicopter as it flew over a river.

A gospel song by Upendo Nkone played softly in the background, with lyrics calling on God for guidance and protection.

The clip has since sparked emotional reactions, with some netizens wondering whether the song choice carried a deeper meaning.

Once the helicopter landed earlier in the day, Ngeno was seen interacting with Red Cross officials, members of the press, and local residents.

Photos captured him standing near the aircraft, appearing calm and focused as he went about his duties.

Many Kenyans expressed disbelief that the same man who had shared a post at around 1:43pm would be gone just hours later.

Social media platforms were flooded with condolence messages and reflections on the unpredictability of life.

Some users described the incident as a painful reminder that life can change in an instant. Others interpreted the gospel music in the video as a possible premonition, though many acknowledged that such tragedies often come without warning.

As investigations into the cause of the crash begin, the country continues to mourn a leader who had earlier that day been offering comfort to grieving families.

The haunting images and footage from the helicopter now stand as some of the final public moments of Johanna Ngeno, a day that began with service to his constituents and ended in national sorrow.
