'Ohangla legend, lady Maureen is alive!' Mother confirms

Ohangla legend, Lady Maureen is alive and kicking! That is according to the singer’s mother Margaret Akinyi.

Akinyi’s confirmation comes just hours after reports regarding Maureen’s death spread like wild fire on social media.

Comedian, Captain Otoyo Sibuor through his Facebook page, was the first to break the false news.

Mourning her, Otoyo wrote,

“Lady Maureen, the Queen of Ohangla music, one of the best in the game… has gone to be with the Lord. May her soul rest well inshaalah. Inna lillahi wa inna illeihi rajiun. ”

However, speaking exclusively to Mpasho.co.ke, Maureen’s mother said her daughter is still ailing but very much alive.

Watu wamepost ameaga na bado mtu ako mzima. Nashindwa ni nini inaendeLea? She’s alive and not dead. She is at home recuperating and most of the time she finds it difficult to speak on the phone for a long time so people contact me.

In February this year, speaking to Mpasho.co.ke on phone, the Wagni Wabiro hitmaker who has been sick for two years was in pain.

“I’M WEAK AND IN PAIN,’ she said PROMISING TO CALL LATER after gaining energy.

Marget also went ahead to call out Maureen’s fake friends in a past interview where she said,

FOR THE PAST YEAR, I’VE NOT SEEN ANY FRIEND MWENYE ALIKUWA ANAKULA NAO BLUEBAND HUKO NAIROBI. WANASEMANGA KIBAYA NDIO INABAKIA MZAZI, NA MIMI NDIYE NIMEBAKIA NAYE.
