Issac Mwaura had previously announced the news of the death of their two kids days after he lost his parliamentary seat.

Mukami and I even lost two of our triplets (a boy and a girl) and we were left with only one son and a hospital bill of 11.2 million to clear not forgetting that we were in the middle of party primary campaigns. It was really tough but we kept the faith.

In a past socila media post, Issac's wife, Mukami, penned down a message for their only surviving child who just turned a year old.

Born at 28 weeks, Njiru who is a surviving triplet has shown immense strength and great will power to live. His survival was a miracle. He spent 10 weeks in the neonatal ICU where he was a breath of fresh air to the nurses and his doctors. He survived Pneumonia at the tender age of 5 weeks old. Njiru continues to be the brightest star always active and working to achieve his milestones. Though he is still tiny in frame and a bit underweight for his age, he has always managed to be ahead; Learning how to climb stairs before he even learnt how to walk. His milestones have been slow but that does not pull him down. Njiru continues to be an inspiration to many people especially preemie mums. He has shown that the greatest gifts come in the smallest packages.
