“ Last year, I got back together with my husband and we stayed together peacefully. I got pregnant and after 2 months he left again. we had not disagreed and nothing was wrong, he just left to go stay with another woman.”

Speaking about depression, the female comedian for the very first time confessed to being suicidal as she had thought of jumping off her 8th-floor balcony.
"Nilikuwa natamani kwa sababu hiyo time nilikuwa naishi 8th floor. Nilikuwa natamani saa zingine venye nimepanda huko nijirushe. Alafu kama mwanamke kitu inaniambia kuna watoto wengine wananiangalia."
