The late Njambi ‘Jahmby’ Koikai’s mother has announced the date and location of her daughter’s burial.
In an interview with local media, she shared that the beloved MC and radio presenter will be laid to rest on Friday the 14th at Lang’ata Cemetery.
Njambi’s father explained their choice of burial site, stating that since her late grandmother is buried at Lang’ata Cemetery, they wanted Njambi to be buried near her grandmother’s grave.
“The memorial service will be on Thursday, with more details to be provided before the burial on Friday at Lang’ata Cemetery. We chose this location because her grandmother is buried there, and the family wanted them to be close,” he said.
Njambi’s mother added that the memorial service will be held on Thursday and encouraged those who wish to contribute to send their donations to pay bill 600100, account number 242424.
In another part of the interview, the grieving mother spoke fondly of her famous daughter, listing Njambi’s many qualities.
“As Njambi’s parent, we won’t put her in a box. She was many things—a scholar, a Christian, an artist, a politician, and a member of the reggae fraternity. Njambi was a mentor.
“This is how I knew my daughter, from how she interacted with her fans. Njambi was larger than life. So, Njambi was all of these things.”
She emphasized that Njambi didn’t want to be confined to a single identity and was truly a woman of the people.
“Njambi didn’t want to be put in a box by anyone. She served everyone individually and never confined herself to one identity. She was a person of the people.”
