He was rushed to the hospital by Kaluonyo MCA Peter Kaulaโ€™s aides and his driver after he collapsed on his way to the ward representativeโ€™s home in Kendu Bay.

Mr Kaula said the legislator got disoriented at Kendu Bay on his way to the ward repโ€™s home.

โ€œSome boda boda people saw him alight from a friendโ€™s car and he appeared weak.

“They struggled to ferry him and Mr Midiwo lost an estimated Sh10,000 in the process,โ€ said Mr Kaula by phone.

He added that the riders unsuccessfully tried to break to the MPโ€™s briefcase.

โ€œMy personal assistant saw all that and intervened. That is when he (Midiwo) was brought to my home.

“I called his driver and they took him to hospital,โ€ Mr Kaula added.

The hospitalโ€™s medical director Sam Oula told Nation.co.ke that Mr Midiwoโ€™s had low blood pressure and he had signs of fatigue.

โ€œHe is a known case of diabetes and his blood pressure was really low at the time he came in. He was admitted here at 10pm and the doctors worked hard to stabilise him,โ€ said Dr Oula.

He has since been moved from the intensive care unit to the hospitalโ€™s private wing, he added.

Dr Oula said further tests will be done on the MP to ensure that his heart is stable.
