Kenyan musician Nazizi Hirji and her husband are in mourning after the untimely passing of her three-year-old son, Jazeel.
In a statement posted by Nazizi and her close associate Wyre, on social media this Wednesday, it was conveyed that Jazeel tragically lost his life in the accident that occurred at the hotel where they were staying in Tanzania.
"We lost this young soul in an unfortunate accident at the hotel where the family was staying," the statement read in part.
Jazeel's body was transferred to Nairobi and buried on Wednesday, according to his religion.
"The void left by the loss is both immeasurable, and the pain is unbearable," Nazizi said.
The songstress requested for privacy as the family mourns Jazeel.
"We appeal for your compassion and understanding out of respect for their need for peace during this time of mourning."
“We kindly request everyone to allow Nazizi and her family the space they need to begin the healing process. A more detailed statement will be made available once the family has had some time to mourn their tremendous loss," reads the statement further.
