Oga Obinna, an influential YouTuber who once worked for Kiss 100 as a radio presenter, recently organized with Kimani Mbugua’s parents to take him (Kimani) to Mathare Hospital for treatment.
Mathare is a rehabilitation facility known for the treatment of mental disorders. The journalist Kimani, who recently came back into the limelight with outbursts on social media suffers from Bipolar disorder.
Speaking to Obinna in an interview with Obinna TV, Kimani’s father said Kimani had been doing well until February 2020 when he was spiked by his lady friends at a party he hosted in celebration of his birthday. The father said he found out from Kimani’s sister who had gone through his phone.
“So I took time to ask the girlfriend what could be this, and these four days… I had to follow up to know what was happening in those four days. He had a bash. Ilikuwa birthday yake. Si nimesema kulikuwa February, and it was around February 24. And the birthday is on February 19. They held their birthday the next day. Sherehe ilikuwa kubwa. Later on when I was doing my parental investigations, where were you, mlikuwa wapi, kwani ulikunywa nini, kuliendaje, the sister came on board akachukua simu yake akaipita akaona si kuna zile tunachukuanga picha za sherehe.Si wakaona pale anaanguka anatapika kuna wasichana wanampiga,” the dad said.
