KOT mix-up Moha Jicho Pevu with boxing legend who died
The death of boxing icon Muhammad Ali on Friday saw Kenyans online flood social media platforms to relay their condolences to his family and friends.
However, a few millennials got confused and thought that it was KTN’s investigative journalist Mohammed Ali of the Jicho Pevu series who had passed on.
They were concerned on who will fill Moha’s boots, but quickly deleted their Tweets after realising the goof.
The truth is, apart from sharing names that sound alike, Muhammad Ali and Mohammed Ali have nothing in common.
Moha Jicho Pevu is alive and well. It is the boxing legend who died after a 32-year battle with Parkinson’s disease.
Here is a sample of Tweets from the confused fans.
So who will do Jicho Pevu now? ????

The confusion was not only local but also international.
