Big Kev has been suffering from brain tumor diagnosed in 2010. He died at about 8pm on Saturday, July 29, 2017 at the Nairobi Hospital.
During an interview in 2010, he revealed that he has had the brain tumor for 10 years but he ignored the warning signs of headaches and paralysis until it finally got his attention.
This led to over 10 brain surgeries and at one point he went to India for a lifesaving operation on his head after all else had failed. Unfortunately after a surgical procedure carried out in October last year, he was diagnosed with optic atrophy a condition that leaves its sufferers blind after the optic nerves dry up.
Kenyan President mourned his demise with a tweet that reads, 'Saddened by @BigKevKenya's passing on. Against all odds you prevailed again and again. You inspired a generation .RIP'.
