Lilian Muli has given fans a reason to talk after sharing one of her throw back photos that has left many talking on social media.
Judging from the photo, it’s evident to see that this must have a been a decade ago when she was still adjusting to the confusing western sense of fashion.

Dressed in a denim jacket and hipster jeans, the skinny Lilian Muli seen on the photo was undeniably turning heads back then; and even with two children now – Lilian Muli continues to give many sleepless nights!
Back in the day simple girl
As times have changed so has Lilian Muli who is now ranked among the most stylish news anchor in East Africa.

Below is the gorgeous photo that has left her fans drooling over the young innocent Lilian Muli!
Tanasha Donna´s EP launch had a turn of events that painted more of a bad image for the Kenyan commercial model.
Saturday saw the Kenyan motherland and fans from beyond, dress their finest and travel miles, just to grace the much-anticipated EP launch by Diamond´s baby mama.
However, seems it turned out more of a disappointment and a mess than many had foreseen.
DonnaTella EP launch turns out a major disappointment
Soon after the event, the NRG radio presenter became the victim of trolls, many calling her out for an utterly ´failed´ performance.
But that was just one of the events that went down badly. The other is her fiancé failing to turn up at the event – the first of a kind by the ´Radio´ singer.
Diamond Platnumz missing in action during Tanasha´s EP launch
Not just Diamond, but his kin as well, who stayed behind in Tz, opting to watch the live event on TV.
Many have asked why, having in mind that this was her first ever major performance and she is new in the music industry especially for the kind of audience.
A section of fans were keen to note that even when the couple landed in Kenya on Thursday, their body language was just off.
Adding all this mess up, fans have urged and advised Tanasha to find herself some stable ground, before she is kicked out and unable to support herself and her baby boy.

Here are some of the reactions:

The mother of 5 appealed to fans online, to save Maureen´s life through blood donation.
Her campaigns finally bore fruit and fans turned up to donate blood to save the life of Lady Maureen.

Akothee pleaded with fans to be sensitive to the singer´s predicament by standing-up, mobilizing and giving hope.
The Ohangla star´s condition worried the madam boss admitting that Maureen was in bad shape and critically needed several pints of blood.

Akothee even offered transport to those willing to donate blood and she was not disappointed.
In return, the President of Single mothers penned:
Thank you so much, we got donors from Migori and Kissi, now the story has changed. The hospital has said, time has elapsed and no one is in the laboratory to conduct the donation process. doctors have left for the weekend and will be back on Monday.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B7-h0NNHNkH/
The mother of 5 further transferred Lady Maureen to a different facility in Kisumu. Further appealing to Kenyans to help contribute in order to support the ailing singer´s expenses.
Death reports
Previously, word doing the rounds had it that Lady Maureen had passed on, forcing her to rubbish the claims and confirm that she is still alive.
I am not dead. I was rushed her by my family when my condition worsened, but I am currently being transfused with blood. It has never been clear what I am suffering from but the condition has worsened in recent days.
It has been three years since Maureen´s health condition saw her in and out of hospital several times as doctors reveal they are not able to tell what is ailing her.
Lady Maureen´s health condition a ´mystery´ to doctors
Maureen often complains of chest pains, leg aches and nasty headaches, stated the doctors.
A condition that sees her need close to three litres of blood daily.
Remorse
The turn of events have affected Akothee who has tried putting herself in the shoes of Lady Maureen´s mother who is running all over in search of her daughter´s cure.
Willis Raburu has been torn for the past few weeks following his daughter’s demise just moments before she was welcomed to earth.
In one of his posts shared on social media, Willis Raburu revealed that his wife pushed out a still baby; meaning they did not get a chance to meet in person.
Rest In Palaces, RIP because you are royalty. – Willis Raburu´s letter to daughter in heaven
Having prepared himself to be one of the best dads ever seen, Willis Raburu has taken quite sometime to get over the fact that his daughter is no more.
New Tattoo
So far the journalist is not shy of admitting that life has changed in an explainable way – but the storm is getting lighter for both him and Maryaprude.
In remembrance of his baby girl, Willis Raburu has gone ahead to pay tribute to his late daughter by doing the most adorable thing that could tear up the toughest hearts.
Willis got a tattoo of his daughter’s arrival and death date on his hand. As seen on his Instagram, the tattoo also has what appears to be the letter of the name they had set aside to give her.
Willis Raburu’s tribute to his late daughter
It is indeed a hard experience but judging from how Willis Raburu has been moving; let’s say things are now getting better.
Kenyan songbird, Vivian and her fiancé, Sam West have opened up that raising children from previous relationships is not a walk in the park.
The lovebirds who spoke with Dr Kingori on his NTV show, are both parents from their previous relationships.
Coming together therefore meant that they have to accommodate each other´s child, and be patient with them because this would greatly influence their lives.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B78sv8Qh4NX/
Sam West stated that introducing another person in a family set-up can be depressing and stressing to the child because of the dramatic shift and new reality.
The comedian shared:
You´ve gotten into a new relationship; you´ve met a new person sasa you have to tell your kid this is your new step mum. Of course, it´s depressing to the child actually it´s very depressing because now you have to allow the child to mourn the death of the previous relationship and now you´re introducing the child to a new relationship.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B6bJSmfJnHp/
Further adding:
Maybe huyo mtoto alikuwa first born in the old relationship na sasa ankua second or last born in this new relationship. It can be confusing.
For Vivian, introducing a new man to her 10-year old daughter needed time and dedication. The sultry singer added that she could only introduce a man she was sure was the one.
Finally, their worlds merged as well as that of their kids, having to treat them equally but with unconditional love.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B6ggdBUJ7W2/
The ´Marshati´ singer advised women to see pregnancy as a deviation and not a punishment, since one can still pursue their goals and careers.
In as much as we need to talk about waiting to be in a relationship in order to start getting children, it is important to understand that once you get a child, it is important to deal with it.
Sam West closed off:
It´s about the relationship with your partner. When you´re coming together, you were not in love with the kids, you were in love with your partner. Ukimpenda unabeba kila kitu amekuja nayo. Ni kama ng´ombe ukikula unakula mpaka mkia. You have to make sure the relationship between your wife and yourself is intact.
Sam West has a six-year old son and Vivian has a 10-year old daughter.
Secular-turned-gospel artiste, Kush Tracey has been on the receiving end of trolls following her decision to switch.
However, her switch, nor her wobbly decisions have been warmly received by Kenyans over what many term as ´confusion´.
Her switch came after her breakup with popular rapper, Timmy T Dat. Unfortunately though, unlike the likes of Size 8 and Wahu, her gospel music has received very low viewership on You Tube.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B7jN5IWgTpM/
Speaking to media personality, Tamima, Kush Tracey admitted that her life has been tough ever since the switch.
People are so judgmental. At the end of the day, you do not live my life so you do not know what I go through and why I make certain decisions in my life. And me deciding to do gospel I believe God is in control of everything. All that I have and I have done is because of God. My talent without God in it, I wouldn´t be where I am today.
Her lifestyle decisions irk majority of Kenyans, especially after getting saved, but with ways that speak a totally different language.
I understand that I may have made some decisions that are not Christian-oriented and that is based on the fact that when you try to get help from people and they will see if they help you they are doing you a favor. To help you they have to get something from you.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B64_ceYg1gu/
Downside
The Switch TV presenter revealed that despite having a talent, it seems the gospel world is not her place.
I decided I am not going to lower myself because I understand where God has brought me and what happened for me to say I switched. And what I am doing right now is because I do not want to call someone right now and be like ´I need your help´. I want to help people and try to change the world. But the things God has given me are on the other side and I believe whatever I am doing God is still in it.
Tamima went ahead to ask how she feels, making the headlines right from churches to among individuals – basically everywhere.
Man can judge me and it is okay. I could care less but at the end of the day, where I am with my God is where I am with my God. I am just an artiste. What I know is that I will do Christian music and music that will impact people because at the end of the day you have these two sides of yours. A side I get money to fulfill my dreams. So if God shows me a way without stooping low, I am going to do it. God is above everything, doesn´t matter what I do or call myself, it is your personal relationship.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B7lc6wCAw1C/
Lessons
Well, what is her take home after publicly announcing her switch, only for it to be slapped back right at her face?
I do not regret making the choice public. Because at that point the decision I made then is what keeps me together. As much as I am doing things that people do not agree with, it gave me a stand. Before I was being reckless, no thought. I am cautious about how I present my brand and how I talk about God.
Kenyan media personality, Mwalimu Rachel may be facing a death penalty after being charged with robbery with violence.
Appearing at the Kikuyu Law Courts on the 31st of January, the NRG radio presenter was charged – along with 4 others who were not present in court – for robbing Martin Mbugua of Ksh 103,000 worth of valuables.
Rachel and her co-conspirators committed the heinous crime on the 17th of January at Kinoo, Kikuyu sub-county as reads the charge sheet.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B7dEH5uBE02/
Among the valuables allegedly robbed from Mbugua are: a Ksh 35,000 wrist watch, two silver chains worth Ksh 65,000 and cash of Ksh 3,600.
That is just but the start of a case that might end up having Rachel sentenced to jail, is she to be found guilty of the charges.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B7WfxD2hJC7/
Section 296 (2) of the Penal Code reads:
If the offender is armed with any dangerous or offensive weapon or instrument, or is in company with one or more other person or persons, or if, at or immediately before or immediately after the time of the robbery, he wounds, beats, strikes or uses any other personal violence to any person, he shall be sentenced to death.
Mwalimu Rachel however pleaded not guilty and was released in a KSHs 10,000 cash bail. Her hearing is set for the 13th of February.
Citizen TV journalist, Willis Raburu is back in the country and ultimately back on our screens.
It clocks a month since the loss of their daughter, Adana but seems like the new month, is shining some bright rays in the media personality´s life.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B7-ssicparl/
The news presenter broke the news online, after sharing a photo of himself in the studio, looking closely at a ball in the air as he prepped for his TV comeback.
It’s great to be back in the game @citizentvkenya Thank you for all the love and the support, I truly appreciate ????????????????
During a live recording, Raburu – full of life – ran into the screen, just to announce that he is back and better.
Wagwan my people, niko ndani (I’m back). It is Monday and what a beautiful way to kick off February.
Before proceeding with his scheduled morning interview, in a panel of 5.
However, he did not fail to recognize and appreciate the presence of fans during his trying moments, acknowledging:
It is good to be back. I thank all of you guys who have been sending your messages, I thank you. May God bless you but for now, we are back to work
Soon after, Raburu headed to the radio studio, highly spirited and dancing to Sauti Sol and Khaligraph´s new jam ¨Yes Bana¨.

Diamond Platnumz´ elder sister, Esma Platnumz turned a year older and it is lots of love for the mother of 1, right from her superstar brother, to Tanasha, to her beloved, Petit man.
The commercial model however failed to disclose her age, insisting that she just turned 20.
Daah siamini km nimefikisha miaka 12 sasa miaka inaenda.
Anyway, looks like many have a soft spot for her, after splashing her with love, gifts and flowers on her day.
Tanasha
Kenyan in-law, Tanasha Donna penned:
Happy birthday to you @_esmaplatnumz . May God bless you on this special day. ❤️????????❤️
That was just tip of the iceberg after her hubby and father to her daughter, Petit man decided to treat her like a queen, sending exquisitely-wrapped bouquet of flowers her way.
Attached was a hand-written letter to the love of his life, thanking her for being the mother to his kids, hoping they will grow old together, side-by-side.
The much hyped DonnaTella EP launch turned out a major disappointment to her Kenyans fans who believed she was not well prepared and just off.
A performance that went down at the Sarit Centre Expo on Saturday, the 1st of February, and one that many termed as below average.
Fans bashed her for a ´failed´ performance despite the fact that she even had a band and a good 3 months to prepare, since last year´s announcement.

However, she came out to defend herself admitting:
Could be better, but for a first with only 2 days rehearsals . I did my best! I know next time will keep getting better.
https://www.instagram.com/p/B71BSj-AdKt/
A section of fans called her out for being off key, high-pitched and tensed during the performance, a clear indication that she was not well prepped.
@tanashadonna this is something you have wanted for a long time gal, you could have practiced more but anyway singing live ain´t a walk in the park.
Others revealing that that is probably why Diamond Platnumz ditched her performance.

Check out other comments below:
I agree she has been hyping about it for months what was she doing? Beyoncé is an artist yet she practiced four months for her homecoming performance which was only two hours. Know your lanes
no honey you can’t sing!! Wacha excuses.
For something so big, you ought not to have an excuse for not practicing.
No one is bitter my dear. I think It was very unprofessional of you to hype us that much only to embarrass your self then now hide under excuses and motivational posts because you hadnt practised well… Stop focusing your prayers and energy on our reactions or praying that God deals with us, have you thought that we could be his messengers too ????????♀️????????♀️????????♀️ You dont have to die trying to be a singer you know? As for D taking off – which now makes sense was to avoid embarrassment, i absolutely have no words… i died when you started explaining that he had to leave coz Family is important? What exactly are you to him? ????????????
The problem with People is that they don’t like to be to told the truth. Your launch was overhyped and you didn’t deliver. You started telling us about this in Sept. Hiyo time yote haukuuwa una practice? I’m thinking someone serious would even have great dancers with great costumes etc giving your best and making an impression because it’s your first. We need to stop making excuses too. You had enough time to practice!!! (3 Months)
The performance was terrible plus Hana sauti but you know this days auto tunes ndio inafanya kazi people were shocked by the poor performance after all the hyping
Aki this is the bitter truth. Alafu that man ehh… she needs to evaluate that relationship. Am feeling she’s in this alone. Diamond left but she hasn’t clicked that yet…
Recuperating Kenyan DJ Evolve´s health condition might still be unstable following reports from his father, John Orinda.
During an interview with K24 on Thursday night, the entertainer´s dad spoke of a surgery the DJ was to undergo this week, but doctors pushed it to Tuesday, February 4.
Mr Orinda further disclosed that the bullet affected his spinal cord and due to his critical condition, doctors advised that he goes under the knife next week.
His spinal cord was badly affected. On Tuesday, January 28, he was scheduled for a surgical operation, but the doctors said he wasn´t in good shape to undergo the exercise. He is still in a critical condition and he has never spoken for the last four days but we hope for the best.

Gratitude
However, DJ Evolve´s father thanked the legislator for rushing his son to Nairobi hospital in good time, where he received quality medical attention.
I thank Babu Owino for taking my son to Nairobi Hospital. I think he would have died had he taken him to a medical facility with limited equipment. So far, he has paid Ksh 800,000 for Felix´s treatment.
DJ Evolve´s dad thanks Babu Owino for saving his son´s life
Bail terms
The Embakasi East MP was released on a Ksh 10 Million cash bail that has sparked heated debate among Kenyans.
Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Noordin Haji challenged the bail terms which are to be paid by the politician, in installments.
Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Noordin Haji (left) challenges bail terms accorded to MP, Babu Owino (right)
According to the DPP, the bail terms given by the court are ´unacceptable´.
We are going for a revision. We agreed as ODPP and we have also written to the JSC. I cannot fathom it. First of all, I have never heard of bail terms that you are asked to pay in installments.
Secondly, my understanding once you pay the bail it goes to the exchequer. How will we be able to access the money to go and pay the injured party. It is really unacceptable, we want to exhaust all channels. This is an anomaly in my opinion.
Kenyan beauty and make-up artist, Wabosha Maxine has always kept her dating life under wraps but she finally opens up about it.
Sharing intimate details with John Telewa, a podcaster, the young act revealed that she got so attached to her ex-boyfriend that she could not lead a life of her own.
There´s a relationship I was in and I actually discovered that I got so used to having someone there that even doing things on my own became hard. Even just going out and filming by myself was a problem. I was so used to having company.
I got so used to having someone there that even doing things on my own became hard – Wabosha Maxine
Rebound
However, she opted out and first sat to think things through, build her brand as well as depend on herself before she added someone into her life.
When I got out of that I took a break for a really long time and focused on really being able to do stuff. I think I separated myself and became a whole person first before including another person, so that with or without that person, I am still okay. Life goes on. So, I don´t feel the need to drag someone along when I´m doing everything.
The content creator stated that her rule in relationships is one: Keep it private but don´t keep your partner a secret.
Keep it private but don´t keep your partner a secret – Wabosha Maxine states
In fact, the promising You Tuber disclosed that when you meet on the streets, she will actually introduce her man but not make a mountain out of it.
The rule that I follow is keep your relationship life private but don´t keep your partner a secret. Like, it´s not a secret that I am dating this person but you won´t see me plastering it. If I meet subscribers out in the city, I actually introduce him and I´m like this is him buy you won´t see me shouting it.

Sassy TV presenter, Betty Kyallo is one known to bash off the critics and walk away like nothing really happened. One so full of life, despite the negative energy, and always living life by her rules.
The beauty recently engaged her online fans in a Q&A session where she spoke a bunch about herself.
First, she articulated she will be turning 31 come the 15th of March. Second, she opened up about her spirited personality and its origin, admitting that being ´Kamba´ is the secret.
Third was obviously how flawless she appears in her photos, only to reveal, that the way she maintains her ´lat tummy´ in those photos is:
I squeeze it in!
Asked what else she would eye for if not the media, she admitted ¨probably comedy! I think I have a funny bone????????¨
Her spirit
The beauty will be remembered for her expose in late 2019 that roped in her sister, ex-hubby, Okari and his friend, Ken Mijungu, among others, and it didn´t end well.
However, she is still walking her paths, head held high and smile too charming to entertain negative energy.
She revealed that ¨this year´s biggest goal is to encourage women out here to keep pushing¨.
An inquisitive fan, threw in the towel posing ¨When are you getting married?¨ and the mother of one was quick to respond ¨When I do ????¨
A word for her haters:
Negative energy is never my problem. It´s the haters problem????Only I decide what I take in, the rest to me is noise.
¨No one puts Betty Down!¨ she declared.
Flaws
Speaking of her flaws and insecurities, Betty penned:
I fear not making it in life as per my own set goals. Love is my weakness, impatience is my flaw.
Lastly, speaking on her worst nightmares, Betty stated:
My daughter in ICU. My accident back in 05.
She closes off with a mantra of her own:
Life is a journey in which if you let fear be your driving force, you lose out on the adventure of living.
Kenyan rapper, Khaligraph Jones has told Huddah Monroe that he is not interested in dating nor sleeping with her, because he already bagged himself a wife.
Spitting fire in his recent release ´Yes bana´, Jones revealed that Huddah refused to pick his calls, with the assumption that he wants to get intimate with her.
However, he clarified:
Huddah simu hashiki anadhani nataka kumpiga miti. Nina wife joh sipendi hizo kiki, am done with that sh*t.

There’s not a day in our (nearly 8) years of marriage that you made me feel less of a woman for not bearing children. You constantly reminded me that I am your companion, and I am enough.
Further admitting that with faith and hope of a better tomorrow, she can now afford a genuine smile as she admires her blessing in form of a baby boy.
But you also reminded me that God promised to fill our quiver, and I now watch in awe as He has began to fulfill His promise.
You constantly reminded me that I am your companion, and I am enough – Kambua gushes
Hopefully expressing:
To many more years Baba Muhoro. Father of my beautiful child(ren)! To many more ???? @jacksonmathu ????
The love on the comment section was just overwhelming.
Many have tried to understand but none has succeeded yet. The kind of friendship existing between Jacque Maribe and Dennis Itumbi, is a tale only the two understand.
In good and bad times – the most tainting of times infact, they have always had each other´s back. However, the bone of contention is that they are of opposite sexes.
You know what that easily leads to – speculations of intimacy. But the two have over and over again dismissed the reports.
Jacque Maribe and Dennis Itumbi´s friendship remains a mystery
In a recent post, a dear Jacque dedicated:
Friendship is, and always will be us @dennisitumbi for rain, for shine, for getting through it all together
Sharing a photo of the two at the Milimani law courts, pretty close and laughing their hearts out, Dennis Itumbi from his end captioned:
And my friend @jacquemaribe turned up to cheer up a friend. Asante
Reactions
This attracted mixed reactions from her fans and followers who were quick to comment:

Tanzanian bongo artist, Aslay picked Kenya´s Huddah Monroe over Vera Sidika when asked to choose his most preferred date.

During an interview with Milele FM, the singer chose his pick in Kenya and Tanzania, without giving reasons why.
In the case of Tanzania, Aslay chose songbird, Maua Sama, over the African Princess, Nandy.

Yamoto
Away from that, the former Yamoto band member shed light on the split, not only in music but in their personal lives as well.
Dogo Aslay revealed it would be an uphill task trying to bring the band back, since first, every artiste now has their own management.
The former Yamoto band
Secondly, each artiste has built and grown their own brand over time. Therefore, trying to pair them back together might be close to impossible.
Further insisting that it is time the world moved on and let the former Yamoto band queries, rest.
Kila mtu ashatengeneza brand yake, ndio maana kila mtu ambaye anataka kukutanisha Yamoto basi aeke mzigo tu hapo. Kwa maana mwisho wa siku, kila mtu ana management yake na ikona ukali wake na uzuri wake. Mi naeza kasema sawa nitafanya. Akaja Beka na management yake kasema kitu fulani. Akaja Mbosso akasema hivi. Mi nafikiria tuangalie ya mbele.
[Every artist has created their own brand and that is why anyone who tries to bring the Yamoto band back together, might have to wait. At the end of the day, every one has their own management, with its bitter and sweet sides. I can agree to come together, but then Beka and his management can come and say something different and so can Mbosso. I think, we should just move forward.]
Ugandan celebrated artiste, Sheebah Karungi, is spitting fire to critics who think they can poke her and still have a good night sleep.
The recording artiste under Jeff Kiwa, as well as other members under his leadership, have not been entertaining any nonsense recently over criticisms thrown their way.
However, reports are rife that the 30-year old dancer and actress might be exiting the management by Jeff Kiwa, to concentrate on her business.
Sheebah Karungi allegedly quitting Jeff Kiwa´s management
This is following claims that she is tired of being taken for granted.
On a Facebook post, her middle finger up, Sheebah ranted:
I got no time for drama this year. Respect me , I respect you. Disrespect me or my business ????????You. #MyMoood2020!
Respect me , I respect you – singer Sheebah declares
Seems she is entertaining no nonsense as the year starts and anyone pocking their fingers in her business.
She runs a women´s pad business that is thriving, if anything. The singer recently launched her crib ´Queendom´.

Jeff Kiwa used to manage Ugandan duo, Radio and Weasel before their tussle over a property ranch the two shared.
Kenyan sultry singer, Akothee cannot contain her elation after being gifted her first iPhone by her alleged lover.
In an Instagram video, the black beauty flaunts her iPhone 11 – the first she ever had – before cuddling it with lots of kisses.
She however does not understand the occasion or the reason behind it but since Valentines is just around the corner, she attributes it as an early Valentine´s gift.

So shy to even look straight into the camera, you´d think someone had robbed her off the energy she usually sparks on her posts.
As she wildly gushes:
I have never touched an Iphone in my life ! This be the first one ????♂️????♂️????♂️????♂️????♂️ He will know what to gift you because he understands your worth ❤❤❤❤
I wont mention him , so you all come for me ! Just know He is a special one ❤❤ 2020 started well ELEVATED
Twendi Twendi goals ! I am loved ❤❤ , Now I have 4 phones too much love
Before declaring:

Celebrity gospel couple, Size 8 and DJ Mo clarify on their Valentines dinner´s events that will have guests paying up to us much as Ksh 10,000, just for the night.
In an online video, the couple explains bit by bit how the amount actually easily surmounts to the 3/4-figure fee that Kenyans have raised concerns over.
First, taking an example of a random dinner with your significant other, in a good hotel, it runs up to at least Kshs 2,500 per person. So for two, it doubles to Kshs 5,000.

Second, apart from just dinner, the couple reveals its package is way heavier; with a PA system, an MC, open mic, flowers..just to mention but a few.
The offer – the couple believes – is therefore, the best anyone could get.
Speaking more about how the event is set to go down, the lovebirds revealed that this is not a night for them to advise people on how marriage ´works´.

Rather, it will be more of an interactive open-mic session, where they first share their story, then other couples will be given the floor to share their experiences as well.
More of like, exchanging ideas or experiences with each other. Basically opening up to the hurdles and good times each marriage brought forth.
We want your Valentines to be Smart and Fun. We want to encourage each other, to loosen up and enjoy the night.
Size 8 with hubby, DJ Mo
The two further hinted on a surprise guest couple who have been a force to reckon with, among many Kenyans. They however failed to disclose who, until the night when the event goes down.
However, they apologize for the Limited Edition and promise to do an inclusive one, next time.

Nonini
The late Zablon passed on 3 days ago after the car he was traveling in got into a fatal accident. Details about the road remain unclear but his friends continue to celebrate the life he lived before his untimely death.

Singer Vivian counts herself among the lucky women to have bagged herself a hardworking and supportive husband like Sam West.
Singer Vivian
So far the two have been together for years and after their traditional wedding; many men were left heartbroken since Vivian had chosen Sam West to be her better half for life! Well, even after years of living as man and wife Vivian can’t stop praising her man for everything he is and will be in the future.
Just recently the singer went on to share a new post where she wrote saying;
Vivian and Sam West
It’s better to have a partner than go it alone. Share the work. Share the wealth. And if one falls down, the other helps. But if there’s no one to help, tough! ➖Ecclesiastes 4:10Swipe for Sweetness ???? #vibes #newmusicsoon #mapenzibilamasharti
Mapenzi bila masharti
This post was shared just a few days ago before the release of her new song dubbed Mapenzi bila masharti which talks about unconditional love.
Singer Vivian
Since it’s not everyone who has had the chance of experiencing what true love is; singer Vivian has painted it in her song which will not only speak to couples but singles dreaming of the same type of love.
