Heartbreaking; It is difficult to explain to my daughter why her mother cannot come home” George Ikua opens up!

There is no pain that can beat that of losing a loved one. Well George Ikua understands this pretty well as he lost the love of his life and mother of his children, Janet Ikua kanini who lost her battle against cancer.

It has been three months since this happened and though it may seem like George Ikua and his kids have moved on but it has not been an easy step. Speaking recently during an interview, George opened up about his 4 year old daughter who has been asking about her mum’s whereabouts.

He understands that the she is too young to understand what has been happening and this is a challenge to him. He went on to say,

“Jasmine is only four. She is trying to understand what it means. It is difficult to tell her why her mother cannot come home for just 10 minutes, say hi, and go back to heaven.”

George has however played a big role and is continuing to raise his children as well as keep his late wife’s Kanini 4 Africa Foundation going in her memory.
