Willy Paul: There was no money to buy my dad a decent coffin, we bought one that even had holes

Willy Paul was forced to narrate his story in a bid to stop critics from trolling him every time he posts anything on his social media accounts.

The controversial gospel singer is always at the foremost of online trolls, Willy Paul has suffered more from cyber bulling than any other celeb, arguably.

The ‘Jigi Jigi’ hit maker has since decided to plead with his critics to stop their hate against him. Willy says the trolls are eating him up.

“My story is really a story!! I don’t talk about my past because I’m not a sympathy seeker!! I get so hurt when people say hurtful things to me without thinking of the impact After!! I am a very strong young man,” said Willy in part.

The singer also opened up about his life in extreme poverty, he narrated how their family was in deep anguish because they couldn’t afford to accord his father a decent sendoff when he died.

“The life I lived before; when my late Dad ( Paul ) was still alive….. was beyond umaskini ( poverty)
My dad was a carpenter in the slums of Mathare KENYA But when he died there was no money to buy his body casket!! We didn’t have money to pay for the mortuary .. we were forced to do unbelievable things just to get him a cheap casket of about 4500 kenya shillings!! A casket that even had holes.. .. .. I will tell you more soon when I gather the energy to!
The life I’m living today, only God can tell how appreciative of it I am.”
