Bahati recalled Auma’s unwavering support, from sewing clothes for him to providing guidance during his relationship with Diana Marua. He expressed deep gratitude for her selfless love and the positive impact she had on his life.

Bahati shared his regret for not visiting Auma when she was in Nairobi, despite their frequent phone calls. He expressed his sadness over not being able to be with her in her final moments.

The memorial service concluded with Bahati performing a special song dedicated to Auma. His emotional performance moved the crowd, and tears flowed freely as he sang in her honor. Teresa Auma’s passing has left a lasting void in the lives of Bahati and Mr. Seed, but her memory will forever be cherished.
