“Unfortunately, his condition deteriorated a few hours ago, and he sadly passed away this evening,” the family said.

The incident, which occurred on February 28, left Johana Ng’eno dead alongside five other people when the helicopter they were travelling in crashed in Nandi County.
The Airbus H125 reportedly went down at about 4:45pm in Chepkiep Village, Mosop Sub-County, amid heavy mist and poor weather conditions.
Reports indicate that the helicopter struck three trees before tumbling and bursting into flames, killing everyone on board.
