According to their maternal aunt Harriet Gesare, the door was locked by their paternal uncle.
“Changing the children’s clothes is even hard because we cannot access the house,” she said.
According to Veronica’s sister Rose Kemunto, Bundi’s family wants the children to stay with one of their paternal uncles.
"They have never stayed with these children," she said.
Prioritising wealth
She further accused Bundi’s brother Dennis Nyangweno of not caring about the children and instead prioritising material wealth.
The children’s plight touched the late Bundi’s friends and neighbours, who called for them to be well cared for.
When contacted, Bundi's brother admitted that he had locked the house. The 11 and 3-year-olds will remain in hospital till the tussle over their father’s wealth is concluded.
Social media users reacted to the heartbreaking news by writing:
Berls Nash:
“May God keep us for the sake of our kids.”
Dianah Kamande Hsc:
“My heart is bleeding.”

“It's double pain to those kids. May God intervene.”
Nelly Waeni:
“Some family members are evil and self-centred.”
Laid to rest next to each other
Tears flowed freely as residents of Itumbe location in Kisii County bid farewell to the five.
Bundi, a Mombasa- based construction engineer, was buried next to his wife and daughters in one big grave partitioned into five to accommodate each body.
"They were good people and we can be sure they celebrated their Christmas in heaven," said Kisii Catholic Diocese Bishop Joseph Mairura.
