She might have loved adventure and shared her sentiments about it on social medial, but Nana’s untimely death has hit many, especially her close friends and actresses with whom she had shared most of her time.
Having played major roles in movies like “Noose of gold” and recently “How to find a husband” alongside Liz, Sarah and Nice Githinji, Nana shall surely be missed onscreen.
Here are some of the tributes by her fellow actresses to whom she became more than sisters including Neomi Nganga who was a bridesmaid at Nana’s wedding
Actress Neomi Nganga (also her bridesmaid )
@nanagichuru I just don't know where and how to start. I am still shocked and in total disbelief that you are no more. I still feel like you are around. So many memories going through my mind right now. I remember we first met 6 years ago during the shoot of 'Noose Of Gold' and we bonded like sisters from the same mother's womb. Since then, our lives have been a roller coaster.
From 'Sumu La Penzi' to 'Demigods' to parties to adventures to hearty laughs, to boy talk. I still remember when you offered me a chance to be one of your bridesmaid. I was excited and shocked at the same time because you had many friends to choose from but you chose me to celebrate the start of a new journey with you. Did you I ever tell you that it was my first time being a bridesmaid? Yes, it was. You looked dashing and glamorous in that gown. The fact that you chose to do your own make-up that day really stood out for me.
You were such a darling and a queen full of life. Your sense of humor was always enticing and that's why you made such a good actress, musician, writer, photographer, and a loving and caring wife. I don't want to say goodbye yet.... Noooo.. It's still not yet real to me.

Oh my goodness, someone please tell me it isn't true. Getting calls and messages left and right as to whether this amazing soul passed today, my head hurts just thinking about it, I'm still waiting on someone to call me to say it isn't true. Just the other day we were talking about going back to coast next month to celebrate her anniversary. I am beyond words with Sadness, RIP my darling, you were an amazing person, an amazing friend, an amazing soul. I love you
