Kimani Mbugua has been battling mental health challenges, often prompting concern when he appears online. His father revealed in an interview that Mbugua’s struggles began after an incident where his drink was allegedly spiked at a party.
His daughter discovered disturbing images of the incident, which reportedly took place the day after Mbugua’s birthday in February.
Following the incident, Mbugua’s health deteriorated, and despite an initial recovery, his father believes he was spiked again six months later, leading to further issues.
