Navio Bereaved
Kenyan-schooled and Uganda’s top Hip-hop artiste, Navio is bereaved. The husky-voiced rapper lost his maternal grandmother a week ago during a function in Kampala.
According to Uganda Online, Molly Blick (84) was at Serena Hotel attending the celebrations to mark 20 years of Crown Beverages Ltd, the makers of Pepsi-Cola in which her daughter Prof. Maggie Kigozi (Navio’s mum) is one of the three major shareholders.
Shortly after Prof. Maggie introducing her she waved to the crowd and moments later broke for dinner. It’s during that time that she collapsed and died. The MC of the night, Roger Mugisha was faced with the worst experiences since assuming this role saying, “I had just mentioned that the old lady has stamina that she wasn’t on a wheelchair…gosh! I gave her so many compliments.”
In a short tribute, Navio said, “People pass away. Remember them as they would like to be remembered.”
Our sincere condolences to Navio and his family.
