Little did we know that we would lose both of them. My last words to her were, you have been in worse situations before,” Mwangi said. How did Mercy Mawia and her husband meet? He also revealed that he and the late journalist clicked the first time they met during admissions. “We met in 2008 we were studying journalism. Ya Mungu ni mengi. I had joined Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT) to study Information Technology and Computer Engineering, but I dropped out without involving the parents. I joined Nairobi Institute of Business Studies (NIBS) to study journalism, and that is where me ad Mercy got to know each other and it happened so soon.
During the second week of admission, she was already my friend,” he said. Mwangi disclosed that his wife’s wish was to meet his mum, who died while he was in high school. The father of one said that he was hopeful that the two have met and shared a hug in the afterlife. “I don’t know what I did for God to give me Mercy. Sometimes you would feel she is too good for me and you wonder what you did to deserve someone like Mercy. No one had a better wife than me. She was kind and smart. Very smart. Even as Mercy goes, she had one wish that nobody could ever fulfil of meeting my mother. I lost my mum while i was in highschool. But now they are together. I hope they find themselves and just hug out and compensate for what she never got while alive. I don’t know how I’m going to cope with this without you,” Mwangi added. He promised to take care of their daughter and said that his love for he would never change. The father of one said: “Mercy because I have only known to live according to your ways. I’ve spent all my adult life with you.
I surrender that death has untimely done us apart, but even in death, my love for you is undefeated. Our daughter will be in good hands.” The media personality’s last Facebook post about missing a friend’s wedding because of illness touched fans.
