On June 18, 2020, Wyre da love child, a Kenyan reggae and dancehall artist, took to social media to express his gratitude and surprise after discovering a khat (miraa/jaba) shop named after him.
The business premise, located in an undisclosed location, proudly displays the name 'Wyre jaba base', a testament to the artist's growing popularity and influence in the music industry.
Wyre's caption, 'Huku ni wapi niwatembelee?', roughly translates to 'Where is it that we can worship?', a phrase that reflects his humility and appreciation for the unexpected tribute.
As the business owner basks in the glory of having their establishment named after a high-profile artist, Wyre's fans are thrilled to see their idol receive such a unique and meaningful recognition.
