The British Broadcasting Corporation, BBC, has announced the death of yet another journalist, Anne Waithera, barely two weeks after Ghanaian journalist Komla Dumor, who was well known internationally as the main presenter of the BBC World News programme Focus on Africa.
She died on Monday evening after a long battle with cancer.
Announcing her death, BBC Africa wrote: “It’s with deep sorrow that we announce the death of our colleague Anne Waithera who passed away Monday in Nairobi.”
Before joining the BBC, Ms Waithera worked at Royal Media Services’ Citizen TV and Nation Media Group’s Easy FM radio station.
