“She visited me in the office to inform me of the pregnancy and later, after she gave birth to you, she came back to see me. At that time, you were about four months old, and that was my first encounter with you as a child,” he reminisced.

However, their interactions were brief due to his postings abroad. “Though our encounter was short-lived and we never saw each other after that as I was posted outside the country, your mum and other family members took care of you,” he added.

They reconnected when Jahmby was in high school. “It is only when you got to Form One and I was back in the country that we were able to meet when you came to the office to look for me.”

Despite the distance, he ensured he provided for her education and supported her in various ways. “From the time I accepted you as my daughter, I never stopped paying for your education and supporting you in other ways. I would also support you from different parts of the world, especially when I was in Nigeria and London,” he said.

In an emotional moment, Ambassador Koikai asked for forgiveness for any shortcomings as a father. “I take this opportunity to thank her family for being there for her when I was absent… I’ll remember you in many ways. I ask here in public, where I may have not fulfilled my duties as your dad, please forgive me, forgive me, forgive me,” he pleaded.

He concluded his tribute with a prayer for her soul, hoping for eternal peace until they meet again. “I pray that your soul will rest in eternal peace till we meet again. Bye bye!”

Jahmby’s close family members also shared glowing tributes, emphasizing her relentless spirit and the power of her influence. They remembered her as a strong, inspiring figure who touched many lives through her work and advocacy.

“Farewell, my friend, sister, and simply the best friend Fyah Mummah Jahmby Koikai. Your beautiful smile, our phone calls about many things, including our days at KBC, your mastery of the Maragoli language, and the happy moments you shared with everyone. You had a large family, just a big family…go well, my friend,” Etale posted on X.

Speaking to Nairobi News, Etale paid tribute to the beloved media personality.

He expressed regret for not reaching out during her blood donation appeal.

“A close mutual friend informed me of her passing,” Etale said. “She was full of life, outgoing, happy, and very understanding. She had a big heart and was very kind, never holding a grudge. I knew her since 2001. She was also very prayerful. One of the things she always talked about was her grandmother, who she was named after and who was her source of inspiration. She used to wear and talk about a dress from her grandmother.”

Etale recounted his last conversation with Jahmby in May when she told him she was not feeling well.

“She said she was not feeling well. She had just started performing again. She was a crowd-puller.”

Radio Jambo presenter Mbusi described Njambi as a peaceful colleague.

“Working with her was genuine work, and her advice was always truthful. We hadn’t seen each other for a while because she was unwell, but we kept in touch. We have lost a true reggae fanatic, and may her soul rest in peace.”

Two weeks ago, Jahmby sent a health proposal to President William Ruto, who was on a three-day national tour of the United States at the time.

Using her social media accounts, Jahmby urged President Ruto to consider treatment for endometriosis and emphasized the importance of investing in healthcare.

“This is a sincere call for help to some Kenyan leaders, but allow me to address this first to President William Ruto as he embarks on his visit to the United States. Honourable President, one of the key areas of your visit is investment in healthcare,” she said.

“Atlanta, Georgia is a dream city for every young girl and woman who has ever battled this terrible disease called endometriosis. There is a center dedicated to restoring the lives of girls and women who have been crippled by this disease, the @centerforendocare,” she explained at the time.

Jahmby also mentioned specific places she would like President Ruto to visit to better understand the disease and potentially help many women in Kenya.

“As you begin your tour of the United States, I would like you to visit places that would help millions of Kenyan women who are silently battling this disease, such as the Endometriosis Care Centre and the Women’s Centre at Northside Hospital,” she explained.

Jahmby’s legacy as an endometriosis warrior and vibrant media personality will continue to inspire many. Her advocacy for better healthcare and her passion for helping others will be remembered and cherished by all who knew her.

Here is Itumbi’s Letter to Jahmby:

Njambi Koikai,

Go well.

The lamp you hold reminds us of the light you shone on the darkness of the pain many girls face.

Thanks for pushing me even when I didn’t fully understand what you were fighting for until I did. Okay, not completely, but mostly.

21 years battling pain.

10, 15, 20 surgeries +

Fighting for others, even as your pain intensified.

You leave, having left a visible footprint next to everyone who witnessed your journey.

You tried to take me to a reggae dance-out—you really tried. That one failed.

But you introduced me to Bob Marley and his quote, “You never know how strong you are until being strong is your only choice.”

In your final days, you pushed to understand and raise awareness about the dilemma many girls face—Thoracic Endometriosis. You died educating and motivating me.

Thank you for allowing me into your life.

Travel safely, Fyah Mumaah!

Paul was writing about you, you have indeed fought a good fight, you have finished the race!

To your family and friends, I pray for comfort and blessings.

You were a good person with a pure heart. A fighter par excellence.

It is only now that I learn your first name was Mary. On a light note, I wish I had the chance to call you Mary. Maria, and use the different Mary jokes on you.

Let me conclude with this: “A bird sitting on a tree is never afraid of the branch breaking, because her trust is not on the branch, but on its own wings.”

Njambi, fly into God’s arms of love and no pain.

“You will pay for oxygen per gram,” EndoWarrior Jahmby Koikai warns doubting Kenyans on the harsh impact of COVID-19

Masses hardly believe until they hear it from the horse’s mouth. It may just be human nature but when you’re told, you better listen.

COVID-19 is a situation that became part of the Kenyan narrative in March 2020, sending the nation into a dilemma.

But many are yet to realize the harsh impact of the deadly virus on the human body.

Jahmby Koikai tells her story

For those still in doubt, renowned Kenyan Endo warrior, Jahmby Koikai has come out to tell her story of a similar situation she was in, for at least 3 solid years.

Media personality Jahmby Koikai

“2015-2018 were the hardest years of my life. It was common occurrence to check into the hospital I used to go to and wait for a bed. Yes wait, because the hospital was full,” her open letter starts off.

“Thankfully God was always on my side, there’d be someone on the discharge. The discharge process doesn’t take 10 minutes. It takes hours while I’d be seated on the bench trying to catch my breath and there was no pandemic then,” Jahmby attests.

All she had been queuing for at the time, was a supply of oxygen. Yes, oxygen.

“The most expensive thing in our Kenyan hospitals is OXYGEN,” she continues.

“My people, listen here, you will pay for OXYGEN per GRAM. It will be more expensive than your medication. I didn’t have a virus. I had Thoracic Endometriosis,” Jahmby warns the Kenyan mass.

Jahmby Koikai

At the time of her battle with endometriosis, she was admitted to a hospital in the US where her treatment proved successful in 2019 when she finally returned to Kenya.

The warning

“Now, with COVID-19, better be extremely careful. Do not do things because others are doing it. You will end up ALONE, NO HOSPITAL BED, NO OXYGEN, NO DOCTOR, NO NURSE,” she forewarns.

Jahmby Koikai

“I’ve fought this fight for years. Lung disease is not easy to recover from. It leaves you with other issues and could leave you on medication for life,” Jahmby continues.

“Don’t be reckless because you’ll go through some crazy unimaginable pain. Concerts, parties, political rallies ain’t going nowhere. They’ll be back. Your life comes first,” her letter closes off.

There you go!
