News broke two days ago that Brenda Ochola, aka Brendalicious, a Kenyan Instagrammer had died in Malaysia.
Rumour had it that she had ingested drugs she was trafficking.
The claims purported that the Kenyan woman died in Malaysia when the cocaine she was allegedly trafficking burst in her stomach.
Kenyans condemned people's love for the fast lane.
A woman named Melissa Ocholaal has come out to defend Brenda on behalf of the family.
In a statement on her Instagram, th3 family denies Brenda was a drug trafficker.
On behalf of the Ochola family, we would like to address the untruthful rumors circulating about my sister Brenda Akinyi Ochola.
Brenda fell ill and was admitted to Hospital Kuala Lumpur on 15/04/2023.
She was hospitalized for medical care but her condition deteriorated and eventually, she required the assistance of a ventilator to help with her breathing. Despite the doctor's best efforts, her condition never improved.
Brenda was not in a coma or on life support as alleged.
Despite the best efforts of the Doctors her condition simply did not improve, and she passed away on 25/04/2023.
Brenda's cause of death was Mycoplasma Pneumonia Septicemia which led to hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy with multiple organ failure.
During this difficult time, we respectfully ask for privacy as we grieve our loss and request that you keep our family in your prayers.@buzzroomkenya @spmbuzz.ke @instablog9ja @lindaikejiblogofficial @officiallindaikeji
