May 17th is a day Kenyans remember from a song called Stella by Freshly Mwamburi. The song's reality was broken down by Kamene and Kibe on The Morning Kiss, sparking a heated debate.
According to the song, a young man named Freshly fell in love with a student named Stella at Kenyatta University. He sold a lot to buy her a ticket to pursue her dreams in Japan, where she not only earned a degree but also got pregnant and found a Japanese fiancé.
Andrew Kibe believes Stella was a gold digger who knew what she wanted in Japan and chose a better life with a Japanese man over loyalty to Freshly. He thinks she should have been honest with Freshly about her intentions.
Kamene disagreed, saying Stella chose growth over loyalty and that many people, including men, sided with her.
As the debate raged on, listeners shared their thoughts, with some agreeing with Kibe that Stella was a gold digger and others sympathizing with Freshly.
