Renowned British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) journalist Larry Madowo took to Twitter on Sunday on Father's Day to mourn and celebrate his late dad who passed on 25 years ago.
In a moving tweet, Larry portrayed his father as a man who deeply loved and spoilt his children when he was alive.
As a child, Larry wrote that he knew that his father loved him and his siblings, a love that may have been inspired by an understanding that he would not live that long.
"It’s been 25 years since my dad left this world. I was just a little boy but I knew he loved us and he spoiled us rotten. It was almost as if he understood that he wouldn’t be with us for long. The years after weren’t always easy but I think we made him proud. Happy #FathersDay, " Larry Madowo wrote.
Larry Madowo started as a journalism intern and went on to become one of the country's revered journalists.
He is currently at the BBC plying his trade as an African business editor and a roving reporter after leaving NTV where he made his big break and scored tremendous success.
In Kenya, he is a household name.
