Published on August 19, 2019, Genge rapper Mejja has found love again after enduring the heartbreak of being ditched by his wife of five years through a text message.

Mejja, a member of the popular music group The Kansoul, revealed in a past interview that he battled depression and contemplated taking his life after his wife of five years and the mother of his daughter dumped him via text message.

According to Mejja, the couple had not disagreed and were happy at the time, but his wife's sudden message asking him to move on with his life left him reeling.

"We had not disagreed. Actually we were so happy. I was in Thika and I got her message asking me if I had arrived well. I told her yes and the next thing she told me was 'move on with your life'" Mejja revealed in a past interview.

Mejja's efforts to salvage his marriage were unsuccessful, and he struggled to come to terms with the reality of his collapsing marriage for a whole year.

However, it seems Mejja has now moved on and is in love again.

On Sunday, he formally introduced his new girlfriend to his fans via Instagram, sharing a picture of them accompanied by a caption that hinted at his new relationship.
