Kimani Mbugua's father has shared a heartbreaking story about the once-upon-a-time TV star moving Kenyans to tears.

What happened to Kimani Mbugua?

The former Citizen TV journalist was at the peak of his career when his life took a drastic turn.

The talented journalist's father narrated how his son's mental health difficulties started in 2020, during an interview with Oga Obinna.

He claimed his son's drink was spiked by some unidentified women who attended his birthday.

"I had to follow up to know what had happened before those four days. He had a bash. It was his birthday. The sister took his phone and went through it and saw pictures of him falling down and vomiting. There were girls hitting him. My daughter said she saw white substances being added to his glass. They were causing him to drink it while he was vomiting and falling down. So I asked my daughter if we could consolidate the phone, but how it got lost, we don't know because we wanted evidence that was there," he said.

Does Kimani Mbugua have a girlfriend?

During the interview, Kimani's father revealed he learnt about his son behaving 'weirdly' from his then-girlfriend.

The heartbroken father said Kimani's girlfriend called to inform him that he was incessantly talking to himself while they were in the house, just the two of them.

"The girlfriend called me and said Kimani couldn't stop talking to himself. She made me listen to what he was saying, and it kept me worried until today," he recalled.

Upon his arrival, he was confronted with a distressing scene: Kimani was tied up with ropes to prevent self-harm or danger to others, as he was utterly uncontrollable.

"Seeing him like that broke my heart; it hit me like lightning; that was the day I saw darkness at midday; I couldn’t believe it,” he added.
