A difficult time for the national broadcaster

The back-to-back deaths have shaken the KBC fraternity, with many colleagues and fans expressing shock and sorrow online.

KBC has urged the public to keep the families of the deceased in their thoughts and prayers, as they navigate these difficult losses.
