Sisi yuma yako wewe tangulia: Popular radio presenter given his last emotional send off

Seth popularly known as Bikira_wa_Kisukuma from Tanzania was among the celebrated radio presenters whose humor could not go unnoticed.

For years he entertained many and from what I have learnt is that he was a man of the people. He was not only friends with his fellow Tanzanians but also one that loved Kenya and was close friends with Sauti Sol.

Sadly, the fella passed on a few days ago and from the stories making rounds on social media, Bikira_wa_Kisukuma had already predicted his death and had accepted that he was soon leaving his loved ones including his young daughter.


Well, today his fans have been given a chance to bid the radio presenter goodbye at the Leaders ground where they will view his body before he is laid to rest.

His death was a major blow to the Tanzanian entertainment industry and some of his close friends are still struggling to believe that he is gone.

However, we from the Ghafla team send our condolences to his family, friends and his entire team.

Below are a few photos courtesy of EFM where he worked before his death.
