A Murang'a woman is in great sorrow and distress after her two adult sons and her daughter-in-law passed away on Sunday, May 12, after surprising her on Mother's Day.

The distraught mother narrated that the trio visited her on Sunday to surprise her for Mother's Day to spend the day with her and their father, who was also at home.

Speaking on Chuma Moto Media's YouTube channel, the woman said that upon their arrival, she went to make the three of them some tea and lunch, and they even shared some of the snacks that the two brothers and her daughter-in-law had carried with them.

"They came here on Mother's Day, and I asked them why they did not inform me prior, but they said they wanted to surprise me for Mother's Day. They were my two sons and my daughter-in-law married by one of them," she said.

They spent the day together until evening, when the three began their journey back to their houses in Murang'a town. They were to use a motorbike that Mwangi, the elder brother, had.

"I asked them to call us after arrival to inform us that they had arrived safely," she said.
