Veteran Kenyan musician Eric Onguru alias Kunguru is dead.
Kunguru died in the hospital where he was receiving treatment following complications from spinal cord injury.
Kunguru’s final manager explained that the star has been in and out of Hospital since 2017.
He attributed his prolonged illness to an accident he suffered back in 2009/10 that affected his spinal cord.
Media personality Gidi Gidi was among the first people to mourn Kunguru.
“RIP my friend KUNGURU ??,” Gidi Gidi mourned Kunguru.
The musician is mostly remembered for his club-banging tunes “I Will Never Let you Go” and “Baby Don’t Go”, featuring Mr. Lenny.
Kunguru was formerly baptised as a ‘ladies’ man’, which could widely be attributed to his lyrics and style of music.
He started rapping at a tender age, although his debut in mainstream showbiz was in 2006 when he released African Woman featuring Mr Lenny.
