Othuol’s last days

Othuol Othuol breathed his last in a tragic event just as he was about to go into surgery for his brain tumor at Kenyatta National Hospital.

There before, the Churchill show star battled TB that had a toll on his health which has since taken him through so much pain and numerous visits to the hospital.

Soon after his death announcement, fellow comedians, close family and friends and the nation at large mourned a rising star and a man who added years into the lives of many through his comical theatrics.

Even though, it is a loss for the comedy fraternity and Kenya at large, many believe it is his time to rest and wish him a safe journey through, until they meet again.

His body is set to be laid to rest on Saturday, October 24, 2020 at his ancestral home in Ndere, Alego, Siaya County.

May his soul find eternal rest.
