Peter Kaberere: Gospel Artistes Mourn His Death
Peter Kahura Kaberere “Kabz”, one of the most celebrated and vocally gifted Gospel artiste, has passed on. The talented singer reportedly got electrocuted at a car wash accident in Nairobi on Sunday.
Kaberere was the Head of Logistics at Mo Sound LTD, the organizers of the annual Groove Awards. He was in Zaidi ya Mziki (Jogg C), sang the song Kiburi and most recently Mwanake, featuring Benachi.
Not all knew him personally, but everyone in Gospel and outside heard of Kabere’s generous spirit. He is a star that shone brightly into many lives- one that has gone out far too soon.
Gospel’s heart is shattered. Here’s what they had to say:
We would like to pass our sincerest condolences to the family and friends of the late Peter Kahura Kaberere.May God comfort us all.
