Prosper was a friend, a colleague, and a mentor in the truest sense. The kind who listened more than he spoke, who lifted others without seeking recognition, and who led with a quiet strength that inspired everyone around him.
He was a true son of Africa. Humble and grounded, he understood the communities he served because he was one of them. He didn’t just talk about mentoring the next generation, he lived it.
The networks he built, the young scientists he nurtured, the collaborations he fostered… these will continue to bear fruit long after today. That is the mark of a life well lived.
We have lost him too soon, but we have been blessed to have known him at all.
Until that bright morning…Lala salama, Daktari. You have run your race with grace 🕊️
