Singer Nameless: Rapper E-Sir deserves a road in South C

Namless and Rapper E-Sir.

Veteran musician David Mathenge popularly known as Nameless has started a petition to name a road in South C after celebrated rapper Issah Mmari alias E-Sir. In the petition on Change.org, Nameless said, "Nineteen years ago, Kenya lost a national treasure, a progressive musician, Issah Mmari alias E-sir. The young talented star aged 21 died in a tragic road accident along the Nairobi-Nakuru highway on his way back to Nairobi from a concert on the 16th of March 2003. Widely regarded as one of the finest rappers ever to emerge on the East African entertainment scene, his music still fills the airwaves on FM stations across the country."
