On June 20th, 2020, DJ Evolve, a Kenyan DJ who was allegedly shot by Embakasi MP Babu Owino, spoke out after being discharged from the Nairobi Hospital.
Orinda, who was bedridden for six months, underwent multiple surgeries at the facility after he was shot on the neck at B-Club in Nairobi's Kilimani area on January 17th.
"I have to come to terms with my situation. Whatever happened was unfortunate. I request Kenyans to pray that I recover fully so that I can continue entertaining. Yaliopita si ndwele," he said in an interview with The Standard.
Orinda expressed his gratitude to his fans for their support during his long hospital stay and said he was looking forward to getting back to the entertainment scene.
"I have really missed home. This has been a really long battle that has affected my family, friends, and business, but I cannot wait to be back," he added.
Although the injuries he suffered in the shooting incident affected his ability to move his limbs, Orinda is confident he will walk again.
