Octopizzo is fighting claims of having a hand in the death of 19-year-old Kenneth Abom who was a student at Strathmore University.
Kenneth is said to have been assaulted by Octopizzo at his house. The teenager returned to their house in Woodley Estate with blood-stained t-shirt moments before he fell through the window from their fourth floor apartment.
He was rushed to Nairobi Women’s Hospital before being referred to Kenyatta National Hospital where he died on Saturday January 19th at around 10am.
Didn’t harm the boy
Octopizzo has since denied involvement in Kenneth’s death, the rapper claims that he didn’t hit the teenager contrary to statements given by some neighbors.
“No, I did not hit the boy. His father was the first person I talked to after the incident. I did not know what he came to do in my house. An hour later, we heard that the boy dropped from the fourth floor,” Octopizzo in a phone conversation with Standard.
