On July 4th, Jane Ngoiri, a renowned Kenyan broadcaster, took to her social media platforms to reminisce about her father, who left this world seven years ago.
She shared a poignant photo of herself in her graduation gown standing beside her late father, accompanied by a touching tribute: "Those we love never go away; they walk beside us every day. Seven years ago, the world’s greatest dad breathed his last… Wawa you are dearly missed," she wrote.
