In her close shave with death, Nyamira Woman Representative Jerusha Momanyi has revealed what she told God before cheating death in a plane crash a month ago at Wilson Airport.
Momanyi said at the height of the most frightful moment of her life while aboard the Forker 5Y-IZO Silverstone aircraft, she only told God to take care of her children.
"Amid the turbulence, I knew that was the last moment in my life," she said.
For the first time, the Women Rep said she was uncomfortable boarding the plane.
