From a banker in Kenya to a cleaner in London, to losing his brother. What happened? | LNN

What would make a man with a well-paying job, a beautiful family, a daughter he had just adopted and great future plans jump all the way from the 17th Floor, taking his own life?
Did he Jump or was he pushed?
We might never know, however on this episode of LNS, the late Stephen Mumbo's brother George Waore is speaking for the first time about his brother's life as he also takes us through his own hard life in the UK and why he quit his well paying job in Kenya to start from scratch in London
He will also take us deeper into what kind of a man Steve was, why he doubts he jumped and how he wants people to remember him

Thank you George for highlighting and summarising life in the UK so well in such few words! Our families back home have too much expectations for us and have no idea how life is in the UK! George, his lovely wife Catherine and their children are the most amazing family I know! Thank you for being a voice for your brother. I pray that someone somewhere shades light to what really happened to him.🙏

[@a.r1832]

I almost thought George was talking about Canada. It isn't different over here. When many of us moved from Jamaica to Canada it was more than a culture shock. You won't get the same professional job you had in your country of birth unless you've had the opportunity to be taken under the wings of some of your own people already living in the diaspora and, who are already established in the same profession. You'll have to start all over again, working from the bottom up. The good thing however is that you'll get there eventually after you have been established. There are usually two options: you can either work for someone thereafter or, start your own business.

Besides of social media rumours, now is his brother,it could be great if the wife can be given a chance to speak of his husband last moments behaviours since she was closest at that time, to my view this guy needed just a push to make his decision of leaving the job,I mean like from the wife or brother,I remember I was facing the same problem, doing my job so passionately to make the company keep going and one day I realized am developing panic attacks every time I was at work,but when I shared with my mum , she sensed danger, she advised me to resign asap and take break, guess what?

I understand work pressure, I worked as a Service Desk Team leader..( served 17 countries in Africa)...I desperately needed the job but the pressure was overwhelming...I couldn't sleep soundly as the desk worked 24hrs & I could be called anytime of the night.....I got so stressed out but had no one to talk to....people would think niko na attitude, Niko na Maringo etc...I hated the job but I had to work.... Employers should understand that employees are not robots, we need rest ....

[@Semnyawenda]

I can relate, work place pressure is so bad, I had it few months ago, no off days, just half day! The bosses were unprofessional, gossip was order of the day, from the directors to collegues! It was horrible, if you are not careful it will drive you nuts and to the grave, im glad i came out alive, will never go and work in that place anymore even though they expect me to go work with them, Im just eagerly waiting for their call so i can put them in their place.

I wish people can know that it's ok to quit a toxic work environment regardless of fat paychecks. Always put yourself first after God. May God give this family comfort and to all those struggling with depression and suicidal ideations, may God redirect you, heal you, give you peace.

[@mwendapoleee]

The problem is when we put our jobs above everything imagine working 20 hrs a day and you have a family even God who owns us does not get that much its evil remember what God wanted to do When the israelites turned against God and worshipped idols ,He wanted to wipe them all out!Thats why we can't even hear our inner voice or instinct that its not right to sacrifice all that time for a job which somebody else can do and no money is worth your time cause its priceless.Life is priceless!Imagine this guy had quit that job realizing its too toxic for him and gotten a much better environment to work in what wonderful thing he would have done.But on the other hand we have to learn to say No!

I used to work at one of the big four accounting firms. The day they fired me was the best day of my life. I cried, but I didn’t know they were doing me a favour. I really struggled with my mental health and I was only an associate. I can’t even imagine how those managers handle the pressure. It’s somewhere I’d never recommend someone to work. I really wish Steve had walked away from that job. May his soul Rest In Peace.

[@carolineouma8374]

Very well said. I walked away from a high pressure, toxic environment a month ago. Trust me, it's important to protect your mental well being. You don't realise you are losing it until you are far gone. Am healing but the peace is priceless🙏

I can tell you for sure, being obedient and not giving up was drummed into most of us including Steve from childhood. Most people don't and won't understand why anyone would choose to leave a toxic workplace. Good for you, for choosing yourself.

[@rubysailor9186]

A very sad story. Corporates exploiting a young intelligent man. Steve was talented but also had faced tough issues particularly losing his dad while in form 4. Never underestimate grief , people deal with grief differently. A very short life but Steve fought a good fight. George,thanks for sharing the story and I love your analogy on how People read the bible.😂

[@rosemercykinoti7637]

I agree we grief differently. I lost my hubby in 2010 when my son was in form four like Steve and I didn't give him enough time to mourn after the burial, he did well in his fourth form but he has never settled after that. About Steve wife, George please understand her. It took three years to believe it was a reality my hubby was no More. May our good Lord walk with you because it's a journey.
