Veteran Vioja Mahakamani actor Gibson Gathu Mbugua has died.
He is best known for his portrayal of a prosecutor in the Vioja Mahakamani drama.
The ‘prosecutor’s’ death has been confirmed by the Kenya Broadcasting Corporation (KBC) where the show airs.
Gibson Gathu’s family revealed that his kidneys had failed in 2021 after the actor had been suffering from diabetes for more than 20 years. The family made a plea to Kenyans to donate money toward the kidney transplant Gathu would need.
Former President Uhuru Kenyatta donated Ksh 2 million to pay the hospital cost at a significant fundraising in June 2022.
Gibson Gathu informed his followers that the kidney transplant had been successful and that he has since been released in August 2022.
Condolences to family, friends and fans.
Rest in peace legend!
