Former Capital FM presenter Grace Makosewe was

found dead in her Ngumo apartment in Nairobi on Wednesday Morning.

Kilimani police boss Peter Katam said her death was reported by her cousin who had earlier left the house in Golf Course Phase 2 estate

for work.

The cause

is still unknown.

Makosewe worked as the presenter of Capital FM's Jam 98.4 show before moving to the Kisumu-based

Urban Radio where she was the DJ.

Her former employer and members of the public condoled with her family via Twitter hash tag #RIPMakosewe.

"Gracie was one of our finest. We will surely miss her," Urban Radio 90.7 FM said.

Gocho Ndung'u elogised her as a "bubbly, hearty and amazing radio and entertainment personality".

David Muthengi said:

"Sometimes we think nobody is watching, but Grace Makosewe constantly encouraged me to keep going. I will keep at it, Grace."

Makosewe's death comes weeks after that of journalist Waweru Mburu, who was head of Radio Citizen at Royal Media Services.

Mburu,

who was behind the Yaliyotendeka show,

in Nairobi on September 28.
