Popular KBC TV show Vioja Mahakamani actor, Gibson Gathu, is dead.
Gathu’s role had a popular role as a prosecutor in the local entertainment series that ran on the national broadcaster for decades.
KBC confirmed the death of the actor through a statement saying that Gathu appealed for financial help from Kenyans in April to get a kidney transplant at Mediheal Hospital in Eldoret.
“Gibson has been managing diabetes for over 20 years now, but sometime in November 2020 his kidneys failed hence he has been going for dialysis twice a week,” the appeal read.
