“At Malaika’s birthday party, Murphy and I were doing some running around when he complained he was feeling weak and he was told to sit down and rest. After Murphy celebrated his own birthday, he had malaria for like 2-3 days.

On the fateful day that he died, he wasn’t feeling too good and he called a nurse to come home and give him some injections.

Afterwards he drank pap and went to the bathroom. In the bathroom he started feeling dizzy and he fell. It wasn’t the tiles of the bathroom that slipped him. He fell as a result of the dizziness and that was it’
