Tecra was buried on May 16 which was attended by close friends and family in privacy at their Naivasha home.

Tabitha Karanja opened up like never before in a series of tweets marking 100 days since her daughter, Tecra Muigai passed away.

“This week marks 100 days since we laid to rest my last born daughter Tecra.” Mrs. Karanja said. “Her death left me brokenhearted without an idea of how to move forward.

People say to give it time. But truth is that time changes nothing. What has changed is my eyes have been opened to more truths,”
