Kwena was a former supplies officer for the county and died while undergoing treatment at the Nairobi Women's Hospital after a long battle with cervical cancer.
Ojaamong said Kwena’s death was a big loss to the family and all those who knew her. He added that she was dedicated and discharged her duties diligently. Kwena was 55 years old.
The late Kwena began a career as a civil servant in January 1991 as a clerical officer III at the former Busia Municipal Council.
Her body will be flown to Kisumu on Friday for a funeral service at Mundika Catholic church.
