The unidentified man was part of a crowd of spectators that were being greeted by Deputy President William Ruto in Vienna, Australia during the INEOS 1:59 Challenge.

Kenyans could however not help but wonder if the former legislator had 'resurrected' to witness the historic moment that placed Kenya on the spotlight across the world. 

Some pointed out that it was coincidental that a man bearing such a striking resemblance to the late MP surfaced just at a time when a Kenyan athlete was making history.

A number of the netizens took the chance to once again mourn and express their condolences towards the family of the late Okoth who passed away on July 26 this year after battling cancer for a long time.
