Old photos of content creator Liz Jackson with the late politician Cyrus Jirongo have started circulating again online. This comes just days after his death in a road accident and amid rumours linking the two.
Cyrus Jirongo died on December 13, 2025, in a crash on the Nairobi-Nakuru highway near Naivasha. He was 64. The former Lugari MP was driving a Mercedes-Benz when it collided head-on with a bus early in the morning. Police say he was alone in the car. His family has raised some questions about what happened that night.
Right after the news broke, people on social media noticed the wrecked car looked like one Liz Jackson had posted about before. She had shared pictures of a similar white Mercedes-Benz E350. Some claimed Jirongo had given it to her. Gossip sites ran stories calling her his “side chick” and shared her photos posing with the car.
Liz Jackson is a media personality and content creator known for her lifestyle posts. She has a big following and often talks about fashion and business. In the past, she went viral for comments on relationships and money.
As the rumours grew, Liz spoke out. She said the car in the accident was not hers. She called the loss of Jirongo a tragedy for his family and the country. She asked people to respect privacy during this time. She did not say much about any past connection to him. Some reports note she denied owning the car but stayed quiet on other parts.
The resurfaced photos show Liz in different settings, some with luxury items. Gossip pages posted them with claims she was close to Jirongo. He was known for being generous. Socialite Huddah Monroe even commented that he liked spending on people.
Jirongo had a long career in politics. He led the Youth for KANU ’92 group back in the day. He served as MP and even ran for president once. He had several wives and many children. Just months before his death, he buried one of his daughters.
His passing shocked many in Kenya. Leaders from Western region mourned him as a big figure. Some friends shared old messages with him. The accident details are still under investigation. A post-mortem showed he died from serious injuries to his chest and other parts.
Online talk about Liz and Jirongo has mixed views. Some believe the rumours. Others say it’s just speculation at a sad time. Liz has posted cryptic things since, like song lyrics about protection.
Family and police continue looking into the crash. Questions remain about his last hours. He was seen in Karen the night before.
Stories like this spread fast on social media in Kenya. People dig up old posts and connect dots. But officials say the car belonged to Jirongo from years back.
Jirongo’s funeral plans are underway. Many remember him for his role in politics and his flashy style. The photos and rumours add another layer to the story of his final days.
