His demise occured on Sunday of February 27, at the Nairobi Hospital after he was in a month-long coma following brain tumor surgery. He was also battling cancer. “He died yesterday evening at a Nairobi hospital where he has been in a coma for over a month. He had a brain tumor and cancer and the last two years have not been good to him in terms of health. He was aged 64 years and had three children,” a family member told Mkenya Sasa . In 2016, the deceased and his brother Gachwe Sammy Gatei were charged with stealing Sh1.64 billion from the retail chain as their siblings battled for control. Later, the siblings put their differences aside as they attempted to resurrect the store business with a funding injection of Sh2.1 billion from an anonymous Mauritian investor.
