Gor Mahia family is mourning once again following the passing on of a fan, who was run over by a bus last season.

The K’Ogalo fan known mostly by his Facebook name ‘Jakababa Jakafadhe’, succumbed to the injuries on Monday after a lengthy four months battle at a Nairobi Hospital.

The Green Army soldier was run over by packed bus along Thika Super Highway last September after he slipped off the moving bus and fell under the bus.

He was part of the Gor Mahia fans traveling back from Thika town after watching K’Ogalo battle to 0-0 draw with host Thika United last season.

The accident happened not far away from Nehema Uhai Hospital (opposite Safari Park Hotel) where he was rushed before he was later referred to St. Francis Hospital in Mwiki-Kasarani.

The news came barely a week after the reigning champions lost another foot ‘soldier’, Dennis Osoti, who died last week.

He battled his injuries in hospital for 4 months during which Judith Nyangi was a regular visitor

    RIP Jakababa. That’s how people leave this World which is full of hatred and tribalism. May your soul rest I’m peace.
