Bahati astonished by woman claiming his mother is still alive

Kenyan singer Kevin “Bahati” Kioko is in shock after receiving a direct message from a woman claiming his mother is still alive.

This message tore the artist between disbelief and hope; he didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.

Bahati shared the shocking news on his social media accounts, expressing his surprise at the news.

The DM came from a woman named Mildred, who introduced herself as Bahati’s half-sister. Mildred claimed that Bahati’s biological mother was alive and often got emotional when she saw him on TV.

“Sijui Nilie ama Nicheke… Apparently someone sent me a DM saying my mom is alive,“Written by Bahati.

In her message, Mildred revealed:Mambo. Mimi naitwa Mildred is healthy on her mother so I can’t stand her. Ati yeye akikuonanga kwa TV anaskianga machozi sana akuleleza vile kuliendAND.”

She also added contact information, urging Bahati to contact his mother and hear her full story.

Bahati has consistently said that both of his parents are dead, and that his mother died when he was very young. In a 2022 interview with his wife Diana Marua, he spoke about the profound impact of losing his mother.

Bahati explained that his mother’s death occurred when he was only six years old and significantly changed the course of his life.

“My mom and dad lived in Huruma. I have seen the good times and the bad times of Mathare. I remember I was six years old when I lost my mother. I was going to first grade…it was Christmas. I think losing your mom changes everything. She was my only source of hope and the other alternative was to leave her in the backcountry after she was buried,” he said.

Bahati tearfully recounted how he struggled to stay in Nairobi after his mother’s burial, clinging to the city in hopes of a better future. His mother’s death, which he attributed to inadequate health facilities in Mathare, motivated him to enter politics to improve the lives of his constituents.

My mother died at home…the sad thing is that Mathare is still struggling with health issues. I remember that Ndio Hata Atolewe Kwa Hiyo Nyumba…I’ll tell you something. It was on Christmas Day…She died at noon, a few hours old, a few years old, in the Ndio mortuary. Bahati told.

The DM news left fans worried about Bahati. Many urged him to be cautious, warning that such messages could be an attempt to exploit his emotions or even his finances.

It is not yet known what action Bahati will take in response to this news. The singer has not yet publicly announced what steps he will take to verify Mildred’s claims.

This unexpected discovery undoubtedly triggered a mix of emotions and memories for Bahati, and he continues to navigate his path through personal and professional challenges.
