Veteran journalist Philip Ochieng was buried at his home in Manyatta Village, Migori County yesterday. His family, led by daughter Judith Adhiambo, eulogised him as a family man.
They said he was a celebrity to the outside world, and famous as a wordsmith, but was always quiet at home.
“It had great meaning for me. My father was never an orator both in public and at home,” said Adhiambo.
