An Eldoret businessman has touched hearts after donating KSh 1 million towards organising the funeral of his late uncle, James Chirchir.
General Chepkulei made the contribution during a fundraising event held in Barekeiwo, Sochoi, Olessos Ward, as family members and friends came together to support preparations for Chirchir's final send-off.
Chepkulei told TUKO.co.ke that he had contributed the money to help his family give his late uncle a befitting burial as he is the man who raised him as his own son from childhood.

The contribution comes against the backdrop of an emotional tribute he wrote following his uncle's death, describing him as the father figure who stood by him when everyone else abandoned him.
Chepkulei previously revealed that Chirchir took him in and raised him as his own son after he became an orphan.
He recalled how his uncle provided for his education, bought him clothes, disciplined him and gave him the guidance he needed to navigate life.
