Moha Jicho Pevu is fine: The death of boxing icon Muhammad Ali on Friday saw Kenyans online flood social media platforms to relay their condolences to his family and friends.
However, a few millennials got confused and thought that it was KTNโs investigative journalist Mohammed Ali of theย Jicho Pevu series who had passed on.
They were concerned on who will fill Mohaโs boots. But most were quick to delete their Tweets after realising the goof.
The truth is, apart from sharing names that sound alike, Muhammad Ali and Mohammed Ali have nothing in common.
Moha Jicho Pevu is alive and well. It is the boxing legend who died after a 32-year battle with Parkinsonโs disease.
Here is a sample of Tweets from the confused fans.
So who will do Jicho Pevu now?
