Naomi Shitemi: Professor of linguistics and Kiswahili studies

This blog post pays tribute to a renowned Kiswahili scholar, the late Professor Naomi Shitemi of Moi University, who passed away recently after an illness.

Today's Saturday Nation featured a moving tribute by Prof Kimani Njogu, the executive director of Twaweza Communications and the chairman of Chama cha Kiswahili cha Taifa (CHAKITA). Here is the link to the feature article, Prof Shitemi: Unsung heroine who fought hard for Kiswahili language.

Rest In Peace, Prof Naomi Shitemi.
