A family in Keiyo North, Elgeyo Marakwet County, is mourning the tragic death of their kin, Abraham Kipruto, a Junior Secondary School (JSS) teacher at Cheptarit Primary School.
According to a source who spoke to TUKO.co.ke, Kipruto had taken a KSh 900,000 bank loan but ended up losing the entire amount through betting. The source revealed that he initially experienced some small wins, which encouraged him to continue betting. Unfortunately, he ultimately lost the full amount.
“He had received his loan and was betting with the money in bits. He won at first but kept going until he eventually lost the entire amount,” the source stated.
