Wambui Kamiru, the widow of the late Safaricom CEO Bob Collymore, wowed Kenyans online on Monday after she sent her deceased husband a message in what would have been his 62nd birthday.

Wambui posted the message on Twitter saying she missed being Collymore’s “personal paparazzi” for their “failed selfies.”

“Mr. C., I miss being your personal paparazzi for our failed selfies. 6 months, 13 days, 22hrs 20mins since I last saw you. Happy Birthday @bobcollymore I continue to love you,” Wambui wrote.
