Radio Africa CEO Patrick Quarcoo loses wife to cancer

News reaching us is that Patrick Quarcoo, the man who founded Radio Africa Group, has lost his wife to cancer.

While the details are still scanty, a source who preferred to remain anonymous for fear of reprisal told Ghafla that his wife had been ailing for a long time before she passed away.

She reportedly had stage 4 cancer and had been admitted at Nairobi Hospital where she gave up the ghost on Tuesday, April 28.

Her death comes as a big blow since it is barely one month since Quarcoo lost one of his closest friends, former Safaricom CEO Bob Collymore to cancer.

Quarcoo, Collymore, Scangroup CEO Bharat Thakrar, Peter Kenneth, Nic Hailey, Aly Khan Satchu and KCB CEO had formed what they referred to as the a boy’s club before the latter died.
