    Big Kirky made me stay glued to my radio 24/7 that even if I'm not anywhere around a radio, my nokia phone is always a life saver and my android device from where I stream live to just listen to you guys.
    What a sad a tragic loss to such a rare gem and icon.
    I, personally will miss him.
    pls, would someone wake me up from my dreams and bring me to a world of reality? I need to ...............

    Kirk Anthony, wao it's sad u walked the earth for so short a time,but it was a pleasure to have known you even if only in voice. You made preaching and the word on SSunday morning while on my way to church look so alive and deep,Godds bless you and preserve your family and legacies. May your soul find rest and comfort as you gave to all your listeners. You gave reality to the power in the voice. RIP Kkirk

    The first time I heard Kirk on radio. ..I was driving and I had just received a nasty call from my boss and was close to tears when I tuned in to smooth and heardbhim talk about his mum. I laughed at his jokes. Since then I had been hooked to kazbar. Still heard him yesterday. This is so unreal.. RIP Kirk. Reminds me of Gods sovereignity. Hope you made heaven..the big man as you often call him.

    Oh LORD. why..... damn....

    Kirk I knew way back in the UK, as a Top OAP on the popular Choice FM... he only came to Nigeria a few years ago when the Radio station made him an offer he could not refuse.

    Very lovely personality with a lot of class and respect to him.

    Rest In Peace the deep baritone voice of the airwaves....

    Damn..... what a pity the good ones leave so early....

    I will surely miss him.....

    RIP once again....


    He was Head of Music @ Choice FM UK as far back as 2006......he was just not any OAP on the airwaves

    I still can't believe it....Mr Quiet Storm has left us. I met Kirk before he started at Choice FM and he remained the same kind, thoughtful and good natured person all the years I knew him. He is in a special part of my memory and I will be pressing the replay button a lot. I will keep your spirit with me.....RIP

    Dear Kirk,

    You had more fans than you know. Some people still living have not, and would not bring a positive effect on people when they talk. You must have been a wonderful person though i never listened to your programme but the positive reviews are touching. I pray you find peace with God almighty. Amen.
