In a devastating car accident in Australia, two Kenyan students, Humphrey Ruto and Penuel Meli, were tragically taken away from their loved ones far too soon. The incident occurred on January 21, 2024 in Australia , leaving the entire Kenyan community in mourning.
Humphrey Ruto and Penuel Meli were exceptional students who had traveled to Australia to pursue their dreams of higher education. Both were known for their outstanding academic achievements and had a promising future ahead of them.
They were an inspiration to their peers and a source of pride for their families. Friends and family have been pouring out their grief and condolences, sharing fond memories of the two young men on social media platforms.
A memorial service to honor the two Kenyan students was held on March 13, 2024 at Our Lady of the Mission Catholic Church in Craigie in Western Australia. Kenyans in Perth, Western Australia, joined the families of Humphrey and Penuel for the Memorial service.
The Kenya’s High Commission in Australia sent a message of condolence which was read by the Kenyan Community President in Western Australia Denis Lagat.
The memories and legacies left behind by Humphrey and Penuel serve as a reminder to cherish every moment of life and to celebrate the achievements of those who were taken from us too soon.
Humphrey Ruto and Penuel Meli were both pursuing their dreams of higher education in Australia. Humphrey, a talented engineering student, had a zest for life and was widely known for his infectious laughter.
