Car Soko has officially confirmed that its brand ambassador, the popular content creator Goliath wa Bungoma, is receiving medical treatment following a road accident in Ruaka on Sunday, April 26, 2026. In a statement released on Monday, the company assured fans that while the influencer sustained injuries, his condition has since stabilized.<\/p>\n
According to police reports cited by the management, Goliath was struck by a vehicle that was allegedly being driven on the wrong side of the road.<\/p>\n
The accident resulted in a significant injury to Goliath\u2019s right leg. He was immediately rushed to a hospital in Nairobi for emergency care. Car Soko’s management expressed optimism regarding his recovery and urged the public to offer their support.<\/p>\n
\n“We are pleased to confirm that his condition is stable, and we remain optimistic about his full recovery. We kindly ask the public to keep him in their thoughts and prayers, and to respect his privacy during this time.” \u2014 Car Soko Management<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Echoes of Recent Tragedy<\/h2>\n
The news of Goliath’s accident comes as the entertainment industry still mourns the recent passing of Gengetone artist Shalkido (Kevin Mburu Kinyanjui). Shalkido tragically lost his life following a crash along Thika Road, between Githurai and Roysambu.<\/p>\n
Despite being rushed to the Intensive Care Unit at Kenyatta University Teaching, Referral and Research Hospital (KUTRRH), the artist was later declared brain-dead. His death, confirmed by comedian Oga Obinna, highlighted the persistent dangers of early-morning road travel in the city.<\/p>\n
Road Safety Concerns<\/h3>\n
Goliath wa Bungoma’s incident further emphasizes growing concerns over reckless driving, particularly the dangerous trend of driving against traffic. As the content creator continues his recovery in Nairobi, his management has promised to provide updates on his progress while he remains under medical supervision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
