ACTRESS SANDRA DACHA REMEMBERS COMEDIAN OTHUOL OTHUOL ONE YEAR AFTER HIS DEATH

Actress Sandra Dacha paid tribute on Monday, October 11, to her late friend comedian Othuol Othuol to mark the first anniversary of his death.

Through her social media pages, the actress recalled receiving a phone call from Othuol’s cousin informing her of his death. “It was around this time last year that I received a call from Othuol’s cousin telling me that he is no more. I was shook. I couldn’t move. I broke down. Didn’t know what to do. The next thing I remember was calling Churchill and Jalango. They were also shocked. They never said a word. I hung up,” she recalled. 

Sandra said she proceeded to break the news with her colleagues shortly before leaving for Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) where she saw the comedian’s lifeless body. “The next thing I did was to break the news in our artists group as I headed to Kenyatta National Hospital. Got there, saw him, still fresh and warm, didn’t know whether to weep, cry, wail. Didn’t want them to take him to the morgue because maybe just maybe he could be breathing. That’s when it hit me that Othuol was gone. Gone and was never coming back. It’s been a year since Othuol. I still miss you my friend,” she added. 

Othuol succumbed to brain tumour at KNH after an operation he was to undergo was delayed by a doctors’ strike.
