At Umiru Village in Yala, Gem Constituency in Siaya County on Wednesday morning, masons are laying tiles in the grave of Prof. Richard Nyabera Magoha, the younger brother of the famous academician and surgeon Prof. George Magoha.

A fence separates the homestead of Nyabera and that of Magoha, perhaps suggesting the close bond the two brothers shared in life.
