What killed Betty Bayo?
The gospel singer suffered from blood cancer, also known as leukemia.
Bayo fought the disease quietly and did not publicly share his health problems.
According to his friend, GP’s Shiro, Bayo asked them not to shoot him or share his photos on social media for fear of being ridiculed.
According to the Mayo Clinic, leukemia affects blood-forming tissues in the body, including the bone marrow and lymphatic system.
Leukemia usually involves white blood cells, which normally help fight infection.
In this condition, the bone marrow produces too many abnormal white blood cells that cannot function properly.
The exact cause of leukemia is unknown, but genetic and environmental factors are thought to contribute. Changes in the DNA of blood cells can cause the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells, which can crowd out healthy blood cells.
Symptoms include persistent fatigue, unexplained weight loss, swollen lymph nodes, sweating and bone pain.
Where will Betty Bayo be buried?
The place where Bayo will be buried has become a topic of discussion, with many speculating that she will be buried at the home of her former lover, Pastor Kanayri, while others suggest that she be buried at the home of her husband, Tash.
Some speculated that he will be buried in Maragua, Murang’a county where he bought land with Tash. However, the family has the final say.
Speaking during Bayo’s service at the Blue Springs Hotel, family spokesperson, Elder David Kigomo, revealed the date the singer’s remains will be buried.
“The family has decided to bury Bayo on Thursday, November 20, next week. He will be buried at Mugumo Estate along Kiambu Road, where he had bought a piece of land. The memorial service will be held at the Christian Foundation Fellowship (CFF) church along Kiambu Road, where Bayo used to worship,” Kigomo said.
Some claimed that the Mugumo Estate belonged to her and her husband, Tash, but others denied the claim, saying it belonged to her.
Responding to the news, netizens praised Bayo for providing his children with a place to live even after he left.
Yahweh is your name said: “Now a smart person will know that they have secured that for the kids. If the grave is there nobody can take that away from the kids.”
Beautiful _gal said: “Happy that she won’t be buried neither at Kanyari nor Maragua at their farm with Tash.”
