On Sunday 6th April Christians on social media remembered the life of Kaberere as someone who touched their hearts through his words and his music. From his friends at Mo Sound to other who grew up with him in music, Kabbz was remembered as a man who made them laugh and inspired them to achieve more from the little they had.

Here are some of the messages :

The passing of gospel singer Kaberere got many Christians in Kenya by surprise as a man who was healthy, energetic and full of life had passed on in an unlikely car wash accident.  Kaberere survived by his wife Njesh and two children before his death had released some amazing music that would bring a listener to the presence of the Lord just to mention Natamani , Just A Way , Kiburi among others.

With his great passion for music just before his death he had gone to the studio a couple of times to work with his producer and some of those songs have not been released yet. One of it that has made it out is Mfalme that he did with hip-hop artiste Kamlesh Kagaba and delightful singer Jaya.

Mfalme with a lovely tune attributes God’s worth as the Supreme King in everything in our life despite the highs and lows that we go through. Inspired by the book og Psalm 19:1 “The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” the song capture the mind of the listener to think about GOD as his/her father and Lord.

It’s the 1st song off Kamlesh new album breaking news and for a fact this song is a true blessing.

Listen to it.

Kaberere was one of the most celebrated personalities in Kenya gospel ministry for his great heart. Today we remember that great heart Kabz had by celebrating his life as 10th July was the date when Kabz was born.

Kaberere lived a large life,  of happiness , of kindness, of fun, and of GOD as he always pursued what would make life beautiful not for himself but for everyone.

Kaberere also known as Kabz after his surname began his music career at the gospel group JoggC and was member of Zaidi Ya Mziki and had launched a solo musical career. We will remember him for his songs like Kiburi, Nisamehe , Natamani with Eunice Njeri , Mitego  , Mwanake , Just A Way among many others.

Kaberere also worked at Mo Sound Ltd, the company that hosts the annual gospel awards Groove Awards and the major partner to Safaricom Live concerts.

Unfortunately his life was cut short in the month of April at his carwash on a  Sunday afternoon which left many surprised by the news.  At the time of his death he was married to Njesh Kahura and had a son [Ulani] and was expecting his second child who was born just a few hours after his burial.

Kaberere lived for GOD and pursued his heart as a born again Christian. He taught us not to hold on things of this world which are materialistic but hold on things that would lead us to heaven.

As you remember his life and pray for Njesh with the two kids,we ask that you may live for Christ if you are struggling with sin try to work on your salvation and pursue Jesus Christ today just as Kaberere did.

Happy Birthday Kabz

The day that we would all say our final last respects to our brother Peter Kahura Kaberere came on Friday 11th April 2014.  Kabz was laid to rest 5 days later at Lang’ata Cemetery after he met his death at his car wash on Sunday 6th April.

We will miss him for his heart of worship and most definitely for his great zeal to serve. These were some of the words that were echoed at his Memorial Church service at Citam Valley Road where Hundreds came to give the final send off to the brother who we once shared a meal with.

Among others who attended the Memorial and Burial service include : His Family, Daddy Owen, Bishop Kiuna , Kathy Kiuna , Bishop Teresia Wairimu , Mc Jessy , Big Ted , Jalang’o, Boniface Mwangi , DJ Mo, DJ Sadic, Dj Soxxy , Deejay Celeb , DJ Sanch, DJ Touch , Grace Mwai , MOG, Mr Vee, Wilbroda , Jimmy Gait and Gloria Muliro.

The service was a quick one, as Christian believers know that death is a  stage in life and after it theirs eternity.  This only took period of an hour as Kabz was laid to rest later in the Afternoon.

Emotional it was as friends and family started to tear when the casket was lowered and this is the point where it really kicked. It was really sad but hopeful at the same time as Kabz lived a large life in Christ as his wife Njesh had shared a day earlier.

We will miss him , but the thing that we should learn from Kaberere is that we have to live right and be the true servant as GOD wants.

RIP Kaberere.

We can only say thank you Jesus for the great news that broke after we laid our brother Kaberere to rest on Friday 11th April. All glory and honor be to our GOD for Mary Njeri the widow to Kaberere, who has now given birth to a bouncing baby girl. This is a turn of events that just took place in a period of a weeks time. Last Saturday 5th April Kaberere and Njesh had a baby shower at their home for their unborn child. Later on Sunday Kabz passed on and after the sad week the family laid to rest Kabz on Friday 11th April. Little did we know what GOD had planned as the new baby girl was to be born just a week after the baby shower and Kabz unfortunately couldn’t see the new born baby.

On being asked on which name she would give the baby Njesh replied a few days earlier that its only Jesus and Kabz would know the name. This joy has come a day after we let Kabz go and all we can say is to continue praying for Njesh, first born Ulani and the second born baby girl. Glory to GOD.
