Stoopid Boy’s final journey has been thrown into fresh uncertainty after a reported court order halted plans to bury the Kenyan rapper.
What should have been a moment of mourning has instead turned into a family standoff, leaving fans asking when the hitmaker will finally be laid to rest.
The late artiste, whose real name was Edgar Davids Odhiambo Ochieng, died on August 27, 2026. His death shocked fans and fellow musicians, but disagreements over his final resting place have deepened the tragedy.
According to reports, the dispute involves his paternal and maternal sides. His father, George William Ochieng Awili, wants Edgar buried in Alego, Siaya.
The father says his son wanted to be buried there. “I just want to fulfil my son’s wishes,” he said, insisting Edgar had told him to take his body home to Siaya.
However, a section of the family is reportedly pushing for Nyandarua, where his mother is based and his elder brother was buried earlier this year.
The disagreement has delayed funeral preparations, with Edgar’s remains reportedly still at Chiromo Mortuary as relatives seek agreement. Reports of court intervention have now added more uncertainty to the send-off.
Many people were left talking about the painful dispute, while the incident sparked reactions online. Supporters appeared divided, with some arguing that the deceased’s reported wishes should come first.
The controversy has also affected fundraising efforts. The family recently halted Paybill contributions, saying unresolved issues needed to be addressed before financial arrangements could continue.
What happened next surprised many, as the family dispute reportedly moved into the courts.
For fans, the hope is that the two sides will find common ground and give Stoopid Boy a peaceful farewell worthy of his music legacy.
