Kenyan film director and content creator Abel Mutua, also known as “Mkurugenzi,” has opened out about his terrifying experience in the delivery room during his wife Judy Nyawira’s labor.

Abel claims that because of this event, he and Judy have decided not to use the labor room again.

During his wife’s delivery, Abel Mutua talked about the emotional rollercoaster he went through in a discussion on Judy Nyawira’s YouTube channel.

Abel recalled the tough moments and how he felt completely helpless seeing his wife in such agonizing anguish.

With a laugh, he related an incident that left him severely damaged, in which he took comfort in gripping the maternity bed’s bars.

Even after all these years, he can still feel the energy from that day.

Award-winning scriptwriter, film director, and actor Abel Mutua recently shared the amusing series of events that led him to pursue film production, ultimately establishing himself as a prominent figure in the entertainment industry.

Playfully, Abel decided to apply for multiple courses, even technical ones, out of fear that applying for just one might result in missing out. Ironically, he was admitted to an engineering course, which he promptly rejected.

“I told my mom a white lie! Let’s join the military! This can’t be, physics? Never, that wouldn’t work. Never,” recounted the renowned movie producer as he reflected on his earlier years.

Abel continued to describe how stressed he was, unable to envision himself in an engineering course, especially since he hadn’t studied Physics in high school and had scored a D in mathematics in his KCSE.

“I was stranded, so I went to the Head of Department to plead my case. I had honestly come here to study broadcast because I wanted to be on screen reading news and all that.”

“The Head of Department said the course is full unless you want to forfeit this chance and try your luck next year,” he shared on the CTA podcast.

The father of one added that fortunately, luck was on his side. Interestingly, he encountered a guy facing a similar situation, which ended up altering the entire course of his life.

“Soon after, my case caught the attention of a guy named Roy, who was in the same predicament as me. He was a brilliant mind but had been admitted to study film production, although he truly wanted to be an engineer.

Roy and I met, and he explained that he had been admitted to film even though he desired engineering. We decided to attend each other’s classes for the rest of the day and see how it goes. Later, we approached the Head of Department, and they agreed to switch us up,” recounted Abel, also a digital content creator.

Reflecting on his amusing campus days, Abel noted that looking back, it was all part of God’s plan.

“All this time, I was frustrated about not studying journalism, but it turns out God was looking out for me,” animatedly narrated the father of one.

He expressed gratitude that things unfolded as they did, as journalism would not have been the right path for him, hindering his progress in life.

“God was rescuing me from trouble because journalism wouldn’t have taken me anywhere. Nothing!

I am a cinema person; I grew up with Van Damme and Chuck Norris. I am a creative! Now, why would I go to broadcast and pick up news?” Abel Mutua shared.

Concluding his story, he wholeheartedly thanked God and Roy for being in the right place at the right time.

“All of this happened in one day. In the morning, I attended a Physics class, went to the Head of Department at 10 am, and met Roy at lunchtime. If Roy hadn’t been around that day, I wouldn’t have gone to KIMC. If he had lost hope and thought, since I missed engineering, there’s no use in going to class, it would have ended that way for me,” expressed Abel animatedly.

Excitement reigns supreme in the Mutua household! Comedian Abel Mutua and his wife, Judy Nyawira, are beaming with pride as their daughter, Mumbus, embarks on the next chapter of her academic journey in prestigious secondary school.

While Mumbus’ 2023 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) results remain under wraps, the joyous news of her acceptance broke on TikTok, courtesy of a heartwarming picture posted by Abel.

The viral photo captures the essence of pure family pride. Mumbus, radiantly decked out in her new school uniform, stands alongside her beaming parents and uncle Lukubaridi. The genuine happiness radiating from the family paints a perfect picture of this momentous occasion.

Naturally, social media went abuzz, with fans eagerly speculating on Mumbus’ new academic playground. The school uniform’s distinctive features led many to point towards a branch of the renowned Nova Pioneer Education Group in Kenya.

Nova Pioneer, a Pan-African network of independent schools catering to students aged 3 to 19, boasts a commendable track record, offering high-quality education from preschool to secondary level. Having established its first Kenyan school in 2015, the Group now operates seven institutions across the country, each promising excellence in education.

Nova Pioneer schools are known for their commitment to academic rigor and holistic development, which certainly aligns with the aspirations any parent would hold for their child. Could Nova Pioneer Tatu City Girls School, with its annual fee of Sh678,150, or Nova Pioneer Eldoret Girls School, at Sh526,200 per year, be Mumbus’ new learning haven?

While an official confirmation from the Mutuas is yet to arrive, fans are already showering Mumbus with virtual congratulations and well wishes, eager to see her flourish in her new academic environment. The excitement is palpable, and one thing is clear: Abel and Judy’s parental pride shines bright, a testament to the love and support they shower upon their daughter.

He continued by saying that the young man had a stopwatch in his pocket that was programmed to go off at the moment when he was supposed to have got up and stopped things, and that was why he was asked to go retrieve his brother’s lifeless body.
He did not, however, disclose the cause of their brother’s death in the original report.

However, Jesse, their other brother—younger than Abel but older than Rapho—took to social media to disclose that their brother had committed suicide.

Jesse (also known as Luku Baridi) hinted that Raphael had tragically committed suicide in a post honoring his brother.

Jesse posted a photo of a beaming Raph posing for a picture at the edge of a football field. captioning the image, an agonizing In a long passage, Jesse seemed to be criticizing his younger brother for giving up on life when things were becoming good.

Jesse chastised Raph for causing his own death in a heartbreaking, tearful post, and he begged his brother to swear that in the next life, he will not only be better than he was, but also do better.

A post shared by Abel (@abelmutua)

Veteran actor and filmmaker Abel Mutua has revealed exciting details about his daughter Stephanie’s academic achievement and upcoming transition to boarding school. In a recent interview, Abel expressed his immense joy and pride in Mumbus’ success in the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) exams.

Mumbus’ exceptional performance has earned her a place at a prestigious boarding school, which she will begin attending in January 2024. Reflecting on this milestone, Abel shared his bittersweet emotions, acknowledging the celebratory atmosphere while subtly hinting at the challenges of an empty nest.

“Judy cannot wait,” Abel humorously remarked, referencing his wife’s eagerness for Mumbus’ new chapter. “Afadhali mimi nilikuwa 24, she was 23 then we got her,” he said, reminiscing about the early days of parenthood and playfully anticipating the potential adjustments of a quieter home.

News of Mumbus’ success reached the public in November, when Abel and Judy proudly congratulated their daughter via social media. While they chose not to disclose her specific marks, their heartfelt messages conveyed their immense pride and support.

Following the announcement, some individuals expressed curiosity about Mumbus’ exact scores. In response, Abel addressed the public interest with humor and wit. He playfully acknowledged Mumbus’ status as an internet sensation and suggested that those eager for details could seek them directly from her. He hinted that further information might be revealed soon, adding to the anticipation surrounding Mumbus’ exciting journey ahead.

As Mumbus embarks on this new chapter in her educational journey, Abel and Judy continue to celebrate her accomplishments and offer their unwavering support. Their story serves as an inspiration to parents and children alike, demonstrating the power of dedication, hard work, and a loving family environment in achieving one’s full potential.

Kenyan comedian Abel Mutua took to social media to celebrate his wife’s birthday, just one day after the couple marked their 15th wedding anniversary. In a lighthearted and playful post, Mutua playfully teased his wife about her youthful appearance, despite their years of togetherness.

“Baby!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 See who is not young anymore. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Hivyo ndio Umeondokea youth! Sasa Wewe ni Mwanamke mwenye umri wa makamo. 🤣🤣🤣🤣,” he joked.

Mutua continued to praise his wife’s timeless beauty, even suggesting that she could still pass as a high school student. “But you’re aging so well, Baby. Wewe Hata ukishonewa uniform ya brown Ngiriambu Girls wanakuchukua intake next. Happy Birthday Mama Mumbus. I Love you!!! 😜,” he wrote.

In a separate joint Instagram post, the couple shared a heartwarming message to commemorate their 15th anniversary. “15 years later. God has been so good to us,” they captioned the post.

Earlier this year, Judy Mutua opened up about her experience getting pregnant while studying at the Kenya Institute of Mass Communication (KIMC). She revealed to Oga Obinna in an interview that she knew she was pregnant before experiencing any traditional symptoms.

“A week before we closed school, I had started to feel strange. I felt that my body was not normal. I started to feel that there was something here. The morning sickness had not yet started,” Judy explained.

She further described how her intuition guided her to the realization of her pregnancy. “Two weeks after I got home I started to feel bad. I saw there is something here, there must be something here. There was no morning sickness yet but I was already starting to feel something.”

Judy’s story highlights the unique bond between a mother and her unborn child, even before the mother is fully aware of the pregnancy. Her intuition and maternal instincts played a significant role in recognizing the subtle changes within her body.

As Abel and Judy Mutua celebrate their love and milestones, their story serves as an inspiration to couples everywhere. Their 15-year journey together demonstrates the power of commitment, understanding, and the enduring love that can blossom between two souls.

Renowned scriptwriter and actor Abel Mutua, is beaming with pride over his daughter Mumbus’s accomplishment of completing her class 8 examination and graduating with honors. Overwhelmed with joy, Mutua took to social media to celebrate his daughter and express his immense pride as a father.

Mutua reminisced about the past, revealing that his wife Judy Nyawira graduated from college while wearing a maternity dress, showcasing her dedication to education even amidst the challenges of motherhood. Mutua’s heartfelt message read, “Aaaaand it’s done!!!! So proud of you Mumbus. First one in our house to wear a graduation hat. Mama yako hapa aligraduate na dress ya maternity. So proud baby! ❤️”

Upon seeing the post, Mutua’s wife Judy Nyawira couldn’t contain her excitement and penned a message on her Instagram page, stating, “We have graduated! It’s now official, mono incoming! 🥳🥳🥳”.

Mutua’s family friends and colleagues, including Njugush and Director Phillip Karanja, also joined in congratulating Mumbus on her remarkable achievement. Phillip Karanja wrote, “Kabisaaaaa 👏🏾👏🏾🔥🔥🔥 Congratulations Mumbus, we are so proud of you 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿”.

Njugush playfully remarked that Mumbus inherited all her exceptional qualities from her mother, Judy Nyawira. He jokingly stated, “Njugush Wow Mungu hupanga mambo yake ..She got everything From Mommy…best believe. ni mapua tu ya Daddy….Aaaaw well into the Champ…..huyu sasa ni kesho aanze ati ako attacho smh”.

Mumbus’s graduation marks a significant milestone in her academic journey and fills her parents with immense pride. Her dedication to her studies serves as an inspiration to others, demonstrating that even with challenges, success is attainable through hard work and perseverance.

Abel Mutua has criticized Nation Media for publishing a report that allegedly disclosed earnings from their next Netflix production. According to the report, Abel Mutua and Phil Karanja, the director of their 2020 film, stand to make a sizable profit of at least $60,000 (Sh8.8 million).

Nation asserts that the information for the story’s numbers came from an interview with seasoned producer Rueben Odanga, who reportedly validated them. They claim that Odanga disclosed the amount he received from one of his successful businesses, Nafsi, which is believed to be the same sum the director of Phill will receive.

They go on to state that the comedian Abel Mutua revealed that they made a 2 million profit following the movie’s 2020 debut despite having invested 7 million.

“We used Sh7m for everything, from pre-production to marketing. It was successful because the returns are almost at a million dollars. We value it because the majority of movies aren’t profitable.”

The assertion that Abel is alleged to have made is this. In a surprising turn of events, it appears that Abel has read the article and is not pleased with what was written.
Abel showed his dissatisfaction by requesting The Nation Media to remove the news in a post on his Instagram stories.

 “@ntvkenya this is so low of you. Where did you get these figures from? Who has even talked to you about anything? Style up manze. You of all people should know better. Take down this nonsense please.”

The soul and heart of Abel Mutua Stephanie Mumbua’s parents discussed the bizarre subject of physical intimacy with her, Judy Nyawira has disclosed.

Judy and her husband, who have some extremely unconventional beliefs, claimed that they had chosen to gradually teach difficult subjects starting at a young age of 6 or so.

“We started having adult conversations with Mumbu at a young age as if she was an adult. But even then we have had to know what type of such conversation to have with her at every stage as she grows.

When she was around six, she became so curious because she could see the pads and pods. At that age, she wouldn’t be able to understand what those resources are for. Nonetheless, I would tell her what they are actually called and that they are used by older girls like her mom and that when she grows up she would be able to use them,”

The same approach was taken while discussing one’s genitalia, according to Judy, who claimed they didn’t hesitate to describe such body parts.

“Unlike how most of our parents did with us when we were young, nicknaming private parts, for us to Mumbu we actually told her what they are called. If it’s a v@gina that’s what we told her it’s called not ‘susu’ or these other names.”

So the couple and their daughter who is now 13 are very comfortable with conversations that most parents would rather avoid.

The other day I heard her call it ‘couchy.’ Apparently, it’s a name to refer to vagina, that I learned from her,”

The marriage of Abel and Judy does not adhere to many of the tried-and-true guidelines that earlier models might have.

As an illustration, consider Abel’s statement that his wife is free to leave him if she decides that doing so is in her best interests.

The couple spoke on the Joyride podcast earlier this year, where the filmmaker revealed that he and his wife had a talk and decided that in the event that he were the first to pass away, his wife Judy should feel free to move on with another guy anytime she wishes.

Abel Mutua, a writer and content producer, maintains that taxes on the earnings from creative activity should be avoided because they would amount to double taxation.

The 36-year-old claims that since content creators already pay taxes in some form or another, it doesn’t seem fair to take what is left of their income.

“What people don’t know is the fact that before we get our money from YouTube, YouTube has already taken 45 per cent. So because I am earning quite a bit from YouTube does that mean you double tax me? That’s the problem there.

I don’t see any content creator who is not being taxed. If they are getting their money from YouTube already 45 per cent has been taken away. If they are getting they money from endorsements from the corporate, I am sure they are paying withholding tax there. So why double tax them that’s the problem.”

In opposition to the new Finance Act’s provisions requiring content creators to pay tax, Mutua claimed that a lot of the discussion surrounding those provisions is based on ignorance.
