Urban Tone musicians Tipsy Gee and Ebola Mkuu have released a song in honour of the departed media personality, Njambi Koikai.
Tipsy Gee featured Ebola Mkuu in the song dubbed “To Koikai” which has surpassed over 45,000 views since its release on YouTube.
In the heartfelt song, the musicians celebrated Njambi’s life and remembered the strength that she exhibited despite battling a life-threatening condition.
“A great soul never dies, and it is the loss of someone that teaches us their worth. Fly mama, fly, you will forever live in our hearts. Rest in power,” the duo captioned the song.
The song sparked reactions from fans and people who knew Njambi mourning her as a legend in Kenya’s entertainment scene.
She was battling Stage IV Endometriosis at the time of her death.
Over the years, she has shared how the battle with the disease saw her lose some friends, relationships and even jobs.
“I never cried. Instead I was caught up in thought. The prospects of surviving this were not very promising and every single day presented itself with new challenges
“I knew that the only thing I had to do was to stay positive and cancel any negativity. I thought about my life and the multi-faceted dynamics I’ve had to experience. I thought about my family and my community,” she shared.
Elsewhere, Reggae deejay Kriss Darlin found himself on the receiving end over an insensitive statement following the death of media personality Njambi Koikai.
Following news of Njambi’s passing, Kriss hit out at people mourning her death accusing them of not standing with her when she needed help.
He mentioned that people were quick to post photos with her yet they could not even donate blood when she asked for help.
“It’s now time to post pictures with the departed but when she asked and needed blood donations and help nobody posted pictures,” Kriss wrote on Instagram.
However, this statement did not sit well with a lot of people who lashed out at Kriss including comedian Njugush who insinuated that Kriss and Njambi were not in good times.
