A Kenyan living in the US was, on Thursday, found dead in his apartment after he failed to show up for an exam due the same day.
Conrad Mwoshi Natse (36) had been in the US for two years pursuing nursing at Medical Career Center in Waltham, Massachusetts.
On the exam day, his fiancée tried in vain to reach him but her calls went unanswered, triggering concerns of his whereabouts.
A police welfare check was conducted in his room and he was found lying lifeless on his bed.
The welfare check is conducted when a person's important social contacts (friends, family, and neighbors) report unusual activity about them.
His body was taken to Boston Medical Centre for a medical examination to reveal the cause of his death.
Natse had moved to the US about two years ago, and lived in Waltham, prior to relocating to Brookline.
His fiancée described Conrad as a jovial and happy man.
The deceased was born to Hesbon Natse and Jane Ijaya Makani of Kakamega county.
Kenyans in diaspora have set up a Go Fund Me account to help raise money and return his body back to Kenya.
