Uhuru Kenyatta’s friend Bruce Odhiambo died last evening (Monday) while undergoing treatment at the Nairobi Hospital after he suffered a massive heart attack last Saturday.
Bruce Odhiambo who is an accomplished music producer at Johari Clef has been unwell since October when he went to India for treatment but he developed a lot of complications upon his return in November.
“His blood pressure has never stabilised, this really affected the functioning of the pacemaker and they couldn’t do dialysis because his heart was quite weak. On Saturday morning at 4am, he suffered a massive cardiac arrest,” friends revealed.
Odhiambo was admitted to hospital during Christmas after his blood pressure went too low. His unstable BP affected the functioning of his pacemaker.
The late, Bruce Odhiambo was the fourth chairperson of the Youth Enterprise Development Fund since its inception in 2006.
He resigned from his position so as to facilitate the investigations into the Youth Fund scandal in 2016. This is however not the only scandal he faced. Many bombshells have since been spilled over his dark ways that may hinder him from resting in peace.
For instance in a shocking tale,Bruce Odhiambo is revealed to be walking down a city street generally minding his own business when he spotted a stunning beauty.
He instinctively stopped her and, after the usual pleasantries, it was not a coffee or lunch date that he sought — it was a strange proposal that left her speechless.
In an interview with Daily Nation’s Lifestyle Magazine in 2014, he said:
“I said I did not want to waste her time with long stories about love and whatnot. I simply wanted her to bear my child with no strings attached,” he says, revealing for the first time a secret that only his close friends know.
It took the woman time to accept the “offer”. And when she finally did, Bruce had a contract drafted by a lawyer in which she waived any claim to the child other than the occasional visit.
