Sarah Njogu, also known as Sarah Gwan, passed very tragically, shocking and grieving many Kenyans. On June 25, Sarah, a well-known video vixen, is said to have fallen from the second-floor balcony of an apartment building in Kasarani’s Seasons neighborhood.
Sarah was with three companions at the time of the incident—two women and one man, according to early reports. Sarah’s family has strongly denied the friends’ allegations that she leaped from the balcony2. Mary Wanjiru, Sarah’s mother, said her daughter was a strong, self-reliant woman who wouldn’t have killed herself.
Sarah was rushed to St. Francis Hospital in Kasarani and later transferred to Kenyatta National Hospital due to the severity of her injuries. Despite the medical team’s efforts, she succumbed to her injuries after a four-day battle in the Intensive Care Unit.
The circumstances surrounding Sarah’s fall remain unclear, and her family is demanding justice. They suspect foul play and have pointed fingers at Sarah’s friends, who were present during the incident. The friends were initially arrested but later released on bail.
The public’s opinion on the probes is still mixed; many want a full and open examination of what happened before Sarah died. Many people have expressed their sympathies and demanded answers on social media as a result of the case’s broad debate.
Sarah Gwan gained notoriety for her roles in music videos for well-known Kenyan musicians such as Redsan, Bensoul, and Willy Paul. Her followers are in grief for the loss of a vivacious and talented person, and her sudden passing has left a vacuum in the entertainment business.
The police are urging anyone with information related to the incident to come forward as they continue to piece together the events of that fateful night. The family remains hopeful that justice will be served and that the truth about Sarah’s death will be uncovered.
