Veteran Kenyan journalist Festus Amimo passed away on December 7, 2025, leaving a deep mark on the media industry and the hearts of Kenyans.
Known for his work on social issues and giving life-changing advice, Amimo’s legacy continues to inspire many, even after his death.
Recently, a throwback video of him giving a stern warning to women who interfere in other women’s marriages has resurfaced online, sparking wide discussions on social media.

Many admired his honesty and the straightforward way he delivered his messages, which made his words trusted and respected by audiences across the country.
In the video that has now gone viral, Amimo addresses women involved in affairs with married men, commonly referred to as “side chicks.”
He questions them about the reasons men leave their homes to be with them and challenges them to reflect on what they are doing that the wives are not.
He also warns against using magic or manipulation to influence men, emphasizing that such actions can destroy lives and families. The message, though delivered in his usual calm tone, carries a strong warning and has sparked debates among viewers.
On social media, reactions to the video have been mixed. Some people praised Amimo for speaking the truth and giving advice that many women needed to hear.
They said his words were timely reminders of the value of loyalty and integrity in relationships.
Others were surprised that such a strong message is now circulating after his death, reflecting on the sudden loss of a respected voice in Kenyan media.
Amimo’s wife also mourned him publicly, sharing that they had married when she was very young. She revealed that he promised to provide for her, which allowed her to stay home and not work or run a business.
She described him as a loving husband who kept his promises until the very end. Their family was expecting their fourth child at the time of his death, which made the loss even more poignant.
Neighbors and friends remember Amimo as a family man who genuinely cared for his loved ones. One neighbor described how he would take his wife on evening walks and openly express his love for her.
His kindness, sense of humor, and dedication to family left a lasting impression on those around him. Many also noted that he and his family were deeply prayerful, often relying on faith to guide their lives.
Festus Amimo’s advice in the resurfaced video continues to resonate with many, reminding women to respect other people’s marriages and think carefully about the consequences of their actions.
While his passing shocked many Kenyans, his messages live on, inspiring conversations about honesty, responsibility, and family values.
