ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi has announced the death of his step-mother.
In a Facebook post, Mudavadi said Mama Rosebella Mudavadi passed away peacefully on Wednesday in Virginia, USA.
"Please keep the family in prayer. May she Rest in Peace," he wrote.
Mudavadi lost his mother - Mama Hannah Atsianzale - in December last year.
Atsianzale died at the age of 9 at Nairobi hospital.
Following the death, Mudavadi said, "As a family, we are devastated by this loss but are bearing it with grace. Please remember us in your prayers. The Lord gives and the Lord takes. May our dear Mum's soul RIP."
The late Moses Mudavadi had two wives - Hannah and Rosebella.
The senior Mudavadi was a former powerful Local Government minister.
He died in 1989.
