KBC Mayienga Radio boss Festus Amimo dropped dead in Nairobi, and cops are trying to figure out what happened. The guy also ran the Luo Journalists Association and apparently meant a lot to people in broadcasting. His body went to the city morgue for an autopsy while everyone processes the loss.
Coworkers said Amimo was solid at mentoring young reporters and pushed them to keep cultural stuff authentic in their work. KBC's managing director called him a breakfast show legend who turned Mayienga FM into a powerhouse station for Luo listeners. Governor James Orengo and Interior PS Raymond Omollo both posted tributes about how the man treated guests with respect and brought warmth to everything he touched.
