“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” ~ 2 Timothy 4:7 ~
Major, as we all referred to him will be missed by the entire Akiba Langata neighbours and community.
We cherished his good nature, warmth and friendliness. He was our ‘go to’ person for Akiba residents. Our young children loved him dearly and looked upon him as their grandfather…and would always cry to be taken to play with Babu as they referred to him. He has been a father figure and a counsel to us here in Akiba especially those ot us close to him on Mamba lane where he was our court representative.
May God receive Major Ngomba with glory in heaven.
Eternal rest grant unto Major Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul rest in peace.
Amen🙏
Mzee rest in paradise till we meet again
