July 9, 2019 - Gospel musician Mercy Masika has released a new song titled 'Muite Yesu', which addresses the issue of people posting fake lives on social media.

According to Masika, many people are falling into depression because they believe they are not leading a glamorous life like their friends.

'A lot of people post nice things about themselves on social media but do not post their real lives,' Masika said.

She implored celebrities who post fake lives of themselves on social media to be real and help more young people.

On her recent appointment as the UN refugee agency's national goodwill ambassador for Kenya, Masika said, 'It is a blessing to serve humanity. There are so many refugees living in Kenya whom we don’t know about, and my aim is to create awareness about them.'
