Daniel Adongo’s story breaks my heart — Ezekiel Mutua

Ezekiel Mutua said he was saddened by Adongo's story

KFCB CEO Ezekiel Mutua on Friday weighed in on the troubles facing former high-flying National Football League (NFL) star Daniel Adongo. This is after a video of the athlete, who is now a shadow of his former self, surfaced online. In the clip, Adongo, with a ring on his nose, is seen smoking as he listens to music.

In a Facebook post, Mutua said he was saddened by the story of Adongo, who was once the pride of Kenya. “This story breaks my heart as if this was my own child. The reason I talk about values with passion is because I believe that the campaign can save someone like Daniel Adongo from degenerating into the abyss of despair. There's no substitute for values,” said Mutua.
