The news of Patrick Hinga’s death were disclosed by his friend and former classmate, Faith Wanja Mwaura. She shared through her Facebook account where she wrote; “With deep sorrow I want to inform you that Hinga has rested. He passed on this morning. I don’t have the strength to say much right now. R.I.P my friend.”
Faith won people’s hearts after she helped Hinga transform from a street urchin and drug addict after taking him to a rehab. She has shared a post revealing that stomach ache was the cause of Hinga’s death.
Her post reads; “I know all of you my dear friends are concerned and have many questions about the death of our friend Hinga. According to the mother, Hinga was doing fine n he did his best to remain the man we all helped him to be.
On Thursday the 14th, Hinga left home and went to visit his friends in Kayole, upon reaching there he called his mom n complained of a stomach-ache though not serious, he spent the night there and said he will be ok. On Saturday late night the problem persisted n that’s when he decided to go to the hospital but by the time the mother got to him early morning yesterday, he had already passed on.
I feel confused n lost and I don’t know what to say or think or even where to start.We are still trying to come to terms with it n make funeral arrangements. I will update you when, where n how he will be buried. Thankyou for your continued support. I need you more than ever before for this one last time.”
