Thuku argued that the former President lied in his statement.
He reacted after Uhuru, who was speaking during the funeral of Jirongo, said that the former MP was brave enough to meet the late President Mwai Daniel Moi in his 20s.
According to Uhuru, Jirongo was also a businessman who invited him to KANU.
Jirongo was laid to rest on December 30, 2025, at his home in Kakamega.
Politicians from Western called on President William Ruto's administration to ensure that a proper investigation is done.
Jirongo died on December 13, 2025, on Nairobi-Nakuru road at Karai in Naivasha after his vehicle collided with a bus, killing him on the spot.
Former Vihiga senator George Khaniri called for investigations, stating that Jirongo did not reveal plans to leave Nairobi because he was supposed to attend a meeting the next day.
According to Khaniri, he spoke to Jirongo around 11pm; Jirongo had confirmed that he was going to attend the meeting.
He also called on the authorities to reveal identities of two individuals caught on CCTV cameras, sitting on the front seat of Jirongo's car prior to the accident.
