In a statement shared after the gathering, Dr Raymond Omollo said he had joined the family and friends as they came together to support the bereaved relatives and coordinate arrangements ahead of the burial. The meeting provided an opportunity for those close to Orero to stand with his family during a difficult period and contribute towards giving him a dignified farewell.
According to Omollo, Orero will be laid to rest on Friday, November 20, 2026, at his home in Magina Village, Kabuoch, Ndhiwa, in Homa Bay County. The date and location now give relatives, friends and other people wishing to pay their last respects an opportunity to plan their attendance.
The gathering at The Nairobi Hospital Auditorium also reflected the importance of collective support when a family loses a loved one. Beyond the practical work of coordinating a burial, such meetings allow friends and relatives to offer encouragement, share memories and help ease some of the responsibilities that come with funeral preparations.
Omollo expressed appreciation to those who have continued to support the family through prayers, their presence and generous contributions. He called for continued solidarity as preparations progress, with the shared objective of ensuring that Orero receives a respectful and befitting send-off.
As the family prepares for November 20, the support shown by friends and well-wishers remains an important source of comfort.
