Abel Mutua's brother shares more details about Rapho's death, burial

Controversy after controversy has been spinning since Abel Mutua announced the death of his youngest brother Raphael, whom he described as a talented football player.

Abel, while announcing the untimely departure of his baby brother, 23, refrained from mentioning the cause of his death.

His other younger brother, Jesse, who is older than Raphael, however, took to his social media and revealed that their brother died by suicide.

In a post mourning his brother, Jesse (also known as Luku Baridi) implied that Raphael had sadly taken his own life.

Jesse revealed that when he was called to go collect his body, the young man had a stopwatch in his pocket with a timer indicating the time he allegedly got up and ended things.

He shared a picture of a joyful-looking Raphael at the edge of a football pitch and captioned the post with a lengthy paragraph seemingly posthumously asking his younger brother why he gave up on life just when things were becoming great.

In the heart-wrenching, tear-inducing post written in a mix of Swahili and Sheng, Jesse reprimanded Raphael for ending his life and asked him to promise that in his next life, he will not only be better but do better as well.

"Waah Rapho, walai my G in your next life..usiwaipiga biz umepiga. We ni mtu bana tumekula noma kwani unasahau breakfast ilikua chai na sembe."

Sasa sa zile tunataka kuomoka tukunywe sausage unafanya biashara gani G.

Manze umeniacha kwa noma mbaya. ule mse ulihangaika nayeye maisha basic inasemekana jo nlikuwachilia G…waaaah," Part of Jesse's post read.

"Siku nlikuchukua ushago kama umededi nli ingia kwa mfuko yako…nikapata stop watch…mbna uka duu hvo…yaani unaweka alarm ikuamshe ndo ufanye kitu uliduu ?

"Na we ni mtu tumekaa kwa shida pamoja huku ata consider watu tumehangaika na wewe ….manze sawa…Friday Buda," the last of Jesse's post read.
