The companion of former minister Raphael Tuju's wife has been found dead in Nairobi.
Police said Tony Ogunda was found dead at a friend’s house, where he had spent the night on a sofa.
The friend told police that he had been drinking the previous night at an entertainment spot in River Road, Nairobi.
Nairobi police chief Benson Kibui said they are treating the incident as "sudden death".
"Investigations have begun with the aim of establishing if a crime was committed. But for now we are treating it as sudden death,” he said.

Ogunda is said to have been out drinking until at around 1 am.
In May, he was charged with trespassing Mr Tuju’s Nairobi house but denied entering the former minister's house without his consent.
