Five months after his accident, actor Kone Nouhoum on Thursday morning succumbed to injuries which had left him paralysed. The actor had been admitted at Nairobi Hospital's Intensive Care Unit in October 2018 after an accident at the Ol Karia geothermal spa in Naivasha. A family friend confirmed to Nation.co.ke that that the actor passed away peacefully at 4am. In an interview with Nation.co.ke last year, his wife Jennifer Kimwati said Kone sustained injuries on his neck and spinal code and had been in and out of surgery since the accident happened. After the accident, Kone could not talk because his diaphragm was also injured and he had to breathe through a ventilator.
