On December 18, 2019, Nana Owiti, wife of renowned Kenyan musician King Kaka, took to Instagram to express her unwavering support for her husband's recent statements.
She began by stating, 'The King is mad and so should every other Kenyan. I mean aren't we? We STAN a KING?'
She then reiterated her call to action, emphasizing the need for Kenyans to take a stand and decolonize their minds. 'Are we mad enough? Is it amnesia or selective memory? Why do we pretend to forget what we feel does not concern us?' she asked.
She went on to reference several high-profile issues, including the Aflatoxin saga, Jacob Juma's activism, and the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) project. 'Can I remind you about the Aflatoxin saga? Did you guys really watch how the story unfolded? Can I remind you about Jacob Juma and what he stood for? SGR? Not yet mad? You are? Good! Let's do something come 2022.'
Her post quickly garnered attention and support from fans and followers, who praised her for standing by her husband and the truth.
