Standing before mourners who had gathered to condole with the family, he pointed to the people beside him and said it plainly: these are my people. Their father is Joseph Omoke.
They grew up together under one roof, shaped by the same mother and the same upbringing that has never featured in any interview or press briefing.
He introduced his brother Jimmy Omoke, a computer engineer who chose a quiet life far from the political world his sibling occupies.
He introduced his eldest son, also a computer engineer. He then turned to his wife Gesare and told her, in front of everyone present, that he loves her deeply.
The leaders present, led by Nyamira Woman Representative Hon. Jerusha Momanyi, had come to offer condolences. What they found instead was a man who had set aside every title and stood simply, completely, as himself.
