Edward Kadilo - Veteran Broadcaster

Have you ever wondered who created the word “UKIMWI”? Meet Edward Kadilo, the veteran broadcaster and translator who led the translation of the AIDS pandemic into the Kiswahili in the 80s.

[@francisopiyo2332]

Was a good one. During a prime time news at 7pm I learnt through him that mtawalia is the swahili translation for 'respectively'.
