Esther Musila, social media personality and wife of gospel singer Guardian Angel, has been plunged into mourning following the heartbreaking loss of her foster son, Malakwen, only months after he lost both his parents.

Taking to social media on Wednesday, April 9, 2025, Musila expressed her heartbreak and disbelief, recalling a recent conversation with Malakwen where he shared his excitement about joining university to pursue his dream of becoming a scientist.

“To a son that I loved like my own, this one has hit hard! It’s hardly been one year since we buried both your parents,” Musila wrote.

“I spoke to you two days ago, and I was excited about your plans of enrolling in university, and I looked forward to seeing you fulfill your dreams of being a scientist. Two days later, you are no more!!!”

Musila described the close bond between Malakwen and her biological son, Glenn K. Naibei, saying the two had been inseparable since their early days in school.

“Glenn K. Naibei and you were inseparable from class 1. I learnt from the two of you how to have your brother’s back through thick and thin. You did not deserve to die this way; I am angry!!!! Some of us failed you!” She said.

In her tribute, she remembered how selflessly Malakwen cared for his parents during their final days, adding that perhaps their spirits called him home to end his suffering.

“Rest in eternal peace, my child, as you are now united with your parents, whom you tirelessly took care of during their last days. I believe they saw your suffering and wanted you to join them. Sleep well, Malakwen; rest well,” she added.
