Jane Ngoiri’s emotional message to Nimrod Taabu as he leaves NTV

Another blow to NTV

Taking to social media, Ms Ngoiri recounted her working days with Taabu, stating that she never imagined that a day will come for her to say goodbye to her colleague and best friend.

“What an emotional day it has been. I can feel the void in my heart. I still have tears in my eyes...errr balancing tears is no joke. I never thought a day would come to say Goodbye. Nimrod Taabu has being more than a colleague, a Best Friend. When I joined NTV in 2012, I was starstruck by this guy who I watched and always wanted to do News with...and when I met him...we just clicked. Our chemistry on TV attracted eyeballs, we connected with viewers and it has always been fun working with NT. Nimrod Taabu; May the Almighty God Bless you in this New Chapter of your Life,” part of her message read.
