Esther Musila's daughter Gilda Naibei eulogized her late father while marking seven years since he passed on.

In an emotional message posted to social media on Thursday, Gilda noted that marking her dad's death anniversary and remembering the phone call she got notifying her about her father's demise was traumatizing.

"This is always the hardest day in the year but 7 years ago getting that phone call had to be the worst," she wrote in part.

Gilda further reminisced about the good times she shared with her dad before his demise.

"Dad I just miss you, Just seeing you or laughing with you."

Media job

Gilda, who is also a lifestyle journalist with a leading newspaper, noted that her father would have been proud of her journalistic work due to the fact that he was an avid newspaper reader.

"You used to read the newspaper every day so I know you would be proud to see your daughter on it," Gilda wrotee.

She further assured her father that her two brothers Jama and Kim were also doing well in life.

"We're all doing well I know you would be proud."

Gilda concluded her tribute to her father by stressing how much she still loves and misses him.

"I miss you and love you. Keep resting in peace."

Stepfather

Gilda's mother Esther Musila remarried in 2022. She married gospel singer Peter Omwaka aka Guardian Angel in a colorful wedding held on January 4, 2022.

Guardian and Musila met in early 2020 and dated for about two years before they decided to get married.

The duo has however faced stigma due to their age difference. Musila, who is 53 years old and Guardian, who is 34 years old, have often faced criticisms for being together.
