It now emerges that Eddy's sister has been an anti drugs and alcohol activist who has worked for Nacada and works with high schools to sensitize students on how to prevent addiction, drug abuse etc. Eddy was frequently appearing as a supporting cast in these presentations and was dealing with various cases of addiction on friends, referal cases etc.
The character he presented to us is actually a real person (apart from the fact that Eddy was also ailing from pancreatic cancer - something he became aware of only last April). Eddy's drug abuse activism started many years earlier.
The character portrayed in the F&F report worked in Nairobi as a driver, was fired cauze of whisky, and is currently ailing from liver sclerosis etc. Eddy was to come with the guy on that October 20th, 2011.
Now you know.
Went to Eddy's burial and it was like no other. He really had many friends, very many. From far and wide, rich and poor alike. Msafara was like a kilometer or more and they kept on coming.
Message of the day,
1, Make sure you exercise every day (even if it means exercising next to your desk, walk to the market instead of getting into a car, wash your car etc
2, Eat fruits and vegetables with a vengeance.
3, Drink plenty of water everyday.
