It took a lot of creativity and perseverance. He was at the microphone alone for an hour every day,&#8221; recalls Didace Nifasha, a journalist with Radio Inkoramutima.<\/p>\n<p>Nifasha, who worked with Shyaka Claver, says he was full of creativity. &#8220;You couldn&#8217;t get tired of listening to his sports programme. It presented varied, original and analytical information,&#8221; he says.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;After him, many people across the country followed his lead. Several sports programmes were launched in different media,&#8221; says Nifasha. &#8220;We are not ready to forget him,&#8221; he insists.<\/p>\n<p>It should be added that this journalist Shyaka Claver lived in conviviality with everyone.<\/p>\n<p>Jado Castar Bagirishya of Radio Salus, who was introduced to the profession by Shyaka, says he worked professionally.\u00a0 &#8220;We knew that he liked APR FC and Manchester but it was not easy for those who were listening to him on the microphone to know that. It was not common,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He didn&#8217;t insult people the way we hear it today. He gave the information and nothing but the information.
