I'm just wishing this is a terrible dream- Njambi Koikai's sister shares

Njambi Koikai’s younger sister, Barbra moved masses to tears as she eulogized her late sister Reggae enthusiast and media personality Njambi Koikai who is being laid to rest today at Lang’ata Cemetery as per her last wishes.

According to the celebrated MC’s family, Njambi wished her last resting place to be next to her late grandmother who raised her.

Speaking about her sister and the beautiful relationship they shared Barbra praised Njambi as she described her as, “a phenomenal woman with the heart of a lioness and the grace of a queen,”

Barbra shared how hard her sister’s death had hit her noting she still could not process that she was no longer with them voicing, “I still hear her laughter and her jokes in the background and uhm… I’m just hoping or wishing this is just a terrible dream,”

Recounting their moments together and the life that the former The Trend co-host had lived, Barbra hailed her sister for being super optimistic and so full of life despite the challenges she went through.

“She never allowed adversity to wear her down, instead she fought fiercely, always emerging stronger. Her optimism was unshakable… she had a unique gift for seeing the glass as half-full no matter what,” she shared as her voice quivered.

Barbra went on to praise her sister for being the family’s protector, comedian and biggest cheerleader.

“She was the person I spoke to every morning, we’d talk about every single detail of our lives. We used to call each other bebe because we saw our precious gifts to be loved and cared for deeply. I remember her vigilance whenever I went out she’d ask for phone numbers of the people I was going to meet.

If I didn’t come back home in time she’d call them. Her pride in all my wins was boundless, she was my best friend. She was our guide in many ways and taught us to shine. She made us believe in ourselves when we doubted,”

Finishing up Barbra recalled how Njambi had made their grief bearable when their grandmother, whom they referred to as mommy) passed away. She fondly recalled how her sister would mimic their grandma’s voice and share jokes about her.

“In our lowest moments she sat with us in our pain until it faded. She’s left a really big gap in our hearts and no one will ever be able to fill those shoes, the only comfort we find is knowing she is free from pain and she’s reunited with my grandma sharing stories once more.

Njambi, we’ll always love you now and forever our queen,” Barbra candidly said.
