Almost a month after the decomposed body of Thika granny Leah Njeri was found at her home in landless; her remains are still lying unclaimed at a mortuary in Thika.

At her home, there is no sign that Njeri, 82, will be laid to rest any time soon. As would be the case when a loved one dies, neighbours and family would hold meetings at the home to make burial plans, but there is no sign at the granny's home that there have been such plans.
