The media fraternity is mourning the sudden death of one of their own, Ojambo Oscar who passed away in a nasty accident on Thursday.
Daddy Andre revealed that the incident happened at the Northern bypass when the president was using the route. Oscar, who was in a hurry, had jumped on a motorcycle and as traffic was being cleared for the president to pass, a truck lost control and rammed into them, crashing him and other cars that were around.
At first, they thought that he had survived the crash because the people at the scene tried to conceal the magnitude of the injury. But they received the shock of their lives when they learned that his head had completely crashed on the tarmac.
Daddy Andre remembered Oscar as one of the selfless and respectful people. He credited him for having been his inspiration to join the music industry
He is the one who taught me most of the things I know. I learnt production from his computer, the video editing. In our family, he joined music first and copied him. He was so loving to me and he respected me a lot even when I was younger than him, Daddy Andre revealed.
Talking about their last communication, the producer revealed that they had earlier discussed their family WhatsApp group with Ojambo Oscar asking them for a get-together before Christmas day, something he did not live long enough to attend.
I went back to our last conversations and realized that maybe he was prophesying his death to us and we didn’t know. He was so low in whatever he did during his last days meaning he was already gone, he said.
He was a friend to the media people and many of them including presenter Lucky Mbabazi have come out to offer their heartfelt condolences to his family. In her tweet, Lucky revealed that Ojambo Oscar was not only his friend but also the producer of her show ‘Kachai With Lucky’.
Ojambo Oscar will be laid to rest at their ancestral home in Busia, Masafu, Sikhokwe village. He leaves behind his partner, Natalie, and a daughter
