Honouring Njambi
Njambi breathed her last on Monday, June 3, 2024, after a long struggle with endometriosis in Nairobi Hospital.
The wake of this news attracted creatives, colleagues, and fans to celebrate the life of a woman who touched so many lives.
Tributes have been pouring in, and many remember her vibrant spirit, infectious energy, and commitment to making a difference.
Kenyans have been posting moving homage to the fallen, bubbly reggae soldier using reggae songs in their tributes. Some noted how Jahmby was the reason they fell in love with the music genre in the first place.
On the sidelines of the funeral meetings currently happening at All Saints Cathedral, Njambi’s mother shared touching memories of her daughter with the media, describing her as a mentor and friend to many.
“We should be brave in her name. Njambi loved you and you loved her. Thank you so much for that,” Njambi’s mother said.
Njambi will be laid to rest on Friday, June 14, 2024, at Langata Cemetery, Nairobi.
