•Fans Demand Answers Amid Speculation Over Alleged ‘Suicide’
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia| The Ethiopian entertainment industry has been rocked by the untimely and mysterious death of Keneni Adugna Wako(Qananii Addunyaa), a prominent model and showbiz personality in Oromia.
The 26-year-old, known for her striking presence and vibrant career, reportedly fell from the fifth-floor balcony of her residence under unclear circumstances.
Her husband, Andualem Gosa, a renowned Oromo musician with hit songs such as Bilillee, is currently under police investigation as questions mount about what really happened on the tragic night.
The Mysterious Fall
According to police reports, the incident occurred on 1st Megabit 2017 (Ethiopian Calendar), around 10:00 PM.
Keneni, who lived in the Wudase Building opposite the Sunshine Homes in Lemi Kura Sub-city, Woreda 3, was found on the ground after an apparent fall from the balcony adjacent to the kitchen area of her home.
Despite being rushed to Yanet Hospital for emergency medical attention, she was pronounced dead upon arrival.
While initial reports suggested that the fall was a suicide, those close to the late model and fans of the celebrity couple are voicing strong doubts.
Many point out that Keneni never showed signs of depression or distress, questioning whether she could have taken her own life.
Police Investigation and Andualem Gosa’s Involvement
Following the incident, the Addis Ababa Police immediately launched an investigation, assembling a team to examine the scene of the fall, collect forensic evidence, and interview witnesses.
Keneni’s body was transferred to Menelik II Hospital for a detailed autopsy to determine the exact cause of death.
Forensic experts are expected to analyse whether her injuries are consistent with a fall or indicate any signs of struggle.
