Photos of Biwott’s gold-encrusted coffin send social media into a frenzy

Kenyans can’t stop talking about Biwott’s special gold-encrusted casket. But is there a speck of truth about everything that has been said about that special coffin?

Facebook is awash with photos of gold-encrusted coffin said to be imported into the country for the sole purpose of carrying the remains of Total Man.

Rumormongers have taken Kenyans for a ride claiming that the coffin is worth million of shillings and that it is even bulletproof.

But the photos of Biwott’s coffin that are doing rounds on social media appear to be the same as those ones taken during the burial of popular Nigerian politician – Mama HID Awolowo.

The Nigerian lady was buried in a special gold-encrusted coffin, devious Kenyans just lifted the photos from Nigerian sites and claimed the coffin was Biwott’s.
