Emotion Runs High as the late former PS Fred Segor’s Son Confronted Politicians at Burial

A burial ceremony for the son of former Principal Secretary Fred Segor turned tense after his family member strongly confronted political leaders who tried to speak politics during the emotional event. The moment shocked mourners and became the most talked-about part of the farewell.

The late man’s brother, who was clearly upset, did not hide his anger when some politicians began turning the burial into a political platform. He reacted strongly in front of mourners and criticized the leaders for ignoring the purpose of the gathering.

His words were sharp, and he used very strong language as he expressed his disgust at what was happening.

According to the family, he and his late brother had made a promise to each other long before that no politics would be allowed at their burials. That promise was important to them, and it was meant to keep such serious family moments free from political speeches and campaigns.

For that reason, seeing politicians try to take advantage of the burial deeply offended him.

The brother made it clear that the day was meant for mourning, remembering, and respecting the dead, not for political talk. His anger reflected the pain many families feel when public figures turn private grief into a public stage.

He stood his ground and defended what he believed was the dignity of the occasion.

Even after speaking in anger, he later asked for forgiveness for the language he had used. This showed that while he was deeply hurt and frustrated, he was also aware that his choice of words had been very strong.

His apology did not remove the fact that he had sent a powerful message to the politicians present.

The incident has drawn attention because it highlights a growing problem seen at many funerals and burials in Kenya, where politicians sometimes use such gatherings to make speeches or build their image. For many families, this can feel disrespectful, especially when the day is meant to honor a loved one.
