A Nakuru engineer has tragically lost his life after being attacked by a swarm of bees while returning home from church. The incident occurred on a Sunday afternoon as the engineer, who had been attending a service at a local church, was walking home. Eyewitnesses report that the bees descended suddenly, stinging the engineer multiple times. Despite efforts to seek shelter, he succumbed to the stings before help could arrive.

The engineer, whose name has not been publicly disclosed, was known for his dedication to his work and his community. He had been planning to marry his longtime partner, and the couple had recently begun preparations for their wedding. Family and friends are devastated by the loss, describing him as a kind and hardworking individual who had a promising future ahead.
This incident highlights the growing concern over bee attacks in urban areas. Nakuru County officials have acknowledged the increasing frequency of such attacks and are considering measures to address the issue. While beekeeping is an important industry in the region, the presence of wild bee colonies in urban settings poses a significant risk to public safety.
The local community is rallying together to support the engineer’s family during this difficult time. Plans for his funeral are underway, and tributes are pouring in from colleagues, friends, and neighbors who remember him fondly.
Authorities are urging residents to remain vigilant and report any unusual bee activity to local wildlife and agricultural departments to prevent further tragedies.
