RIP Badi. I have learnt with shock the untimely death of my old friend and colleague, Badi, in Mombasa.
I worked and interacted with him at the then VOK’s broadcasting house (BH) at the sports desk and news room’s current affairs programme, ‘Yale yaliyotufia’.
I can attest he was an inspiring and liking mentor. I knew him in my early childhood when he worked at Juhudi studios in Kitui town after he left Kalawa Secondary School.
I have had close relationship even with his late cousin, Ali Khalfani, whom we worked together at defunct Kenya Times.
May his soul rest in peace. Amen.
