KK Mwenyewe: BFF Kafengo says comedian died by his side while awaiting medical attention
- KK Mwenyewe had quietly battled a recurring stomach condition for years, a struggle known only to those closest to him
- In recent months, what began as manageable acidity gradually worsened, forcing the comedian to seek more urgent medical attention
- On the day of his death, he appeared stable and even made plans, until a chilling moment in the hospital waiting line changed everything
Kenyans are still reeling from the untimely death of comedian KK Mwenyewe, who was popular for mimicking former deputy president Rigathi Gachagua.
On Monday, July 21, friends, family, and fellow content creators gathered at the Blue Springs Hotel along Thika Road to honour his memory.
What was KK Mwenyewe's cause of death?
The event was filled with raw emotions, but it was his best friend Kafengo’s recollection of KK's final moments that left mourners heartbroken.
Speaking at the memorial, a visibly emotional Kafengo disclosed the comedian had been battling health issues for years.
“Since 2020, he has been in and out of hospital after developing stomach complications, in particular acidity. He had been going to hospital, yes, but two months ago, the issue became more serious, and a month later, it worsened. On Friday, July 11, he went to a private hospital and was referred to a public hospital for further assistance," Kafengo narrated.
Kafengo shared that KK appeared to recover after being treated that weekend.
“He was given medical attention and put on a drip. He actually recovered like he always does. He spent that weekend with his parents here in Kirigiti while planning how to visit a public hospital on Monday. Even on Sunday, none of us thought that he would pass away because he was cheerful when we left each other.”
According to Kafengo, the two were to meet on Monday to shoot content.
How were KK Mwenyewe's last moments like?
However, before that could happen, he received a call from their director informing him that KK needed to be taken to hospital.
“He was still not in a very serious condition because he could communicate and even drink,” he recalled.
They managed to find a car and rushed him to Kiambu Level 5 Hospital.
“We sat in line waiting to be attended to. As we were still waiting, I realised that our guy had gone silent. I had to call the doctor even though there was a line. When the doctor came, he informed us that the exact moment we noticed he had gone silent was when he passed away. It was so sudden," he noted while struggling to contain his grief.
Kafengo further urged supporters and well-wishers to support the family, noting that KK was living with his elderly grandmother and was the sole breadwinner, having come from a very humble background.
