The late Njambi 'Jahmby' Koikai's mother has revealed the date and location of her daughter's burial.

During an interview with local media, she said that the late MC and radio presenter would be buried on Friday the 14th at Lang'ata Cemetary.

Njambi's father for his part explained why they decided to bury her at Lang'ata Cemetery and not in their ancestral village, saying that because her late grandmother had been buried there, they also wanted her to be laid to rest near her grandmother's grave.

"The memorial service will be on Thursday, and more details will be provided before the burial on Friday at Lang'ata Cemetery. She will be buried there because her grandmother is buried there, and the family wanted her to be laid to rest close to her," the deceased's father explained.

Njambi's mom added that the memorial service would be on Thursday and that people hoping to contribute should send their money to pay bill 600100 and account number 242424.
