"Taaaaaaaarifa!"
The legendary voice behind that iconic football commentary call has fallen silent, but his legacy will continue to echo in the ears of football lovers for generations.
Veteran Radio Jambo football commentator Paul Kimathi Kaberia, popularly known as Diblo Kaberia, was laid to rest on June 7 at his home in Kangeta, Meru County.
The celebrated broadcaster was accorded an emotional send-off, beginning with a memorial service at All Saints Cathedral in Nairobi. In a touching tribute to his lifelong passion for football, family members wore Arsenal jerseys while delivering their eulogies, honouring both Kaberia's love for the game and his beloved 2025/26 English champions.
