Former powerful minister and veteran politician Nicholas Biwott, 77, died at a Nairobi hospital on Tuesday after a long illness. Famously known as 'Total Man', he was one of the most trusted lieutenants in the political life of retired President Daniel Arap Moi. The former Keiyo South MP's name emerged during a speech in parliament where he said: "It was important for a politician to be a man, a total man." This was was a jab at Biwott for indecently exposing himself in Auckland five days before the said parliamentary sitting. In 2016, there were rumours Biwott had died of which he urged the police to investigate those spreading the malicious reports.
