Fans of popular Mugithi singer Samidoh Muchoki were left deeply concerned following a cryptic and unsettling message he posted online about death. The message, which appeared on his social media pages, discussed the notion of early death and included a poetic reference suggesting that people should “look for him in the stars” after his demise. Although the post was quickly deleted, many followers had already taken screenshots, sparking widespread worry across social media platforms.
The timing of the post raised even more eyebrows as it came just hours after Samidoh had publicly celebrated his wife, Edday Nderitu, on her birthday. In his earlier post, Samidoh had praised Edday, describing her as a phenomenal wife and devoted mother. He acknowledged her as the cornerstone of their family, the glue that holds everything together. His loving tribute was well received, making the sudden shift in tone from heartfelt to dark particularly alarming.
Following the disturbing post, fans redirected their attention to Edday, flooding her social media with messages of concern and urging her to check on her husband. Edday had posted a cheerful video of herself enjoying a birthday outing with her close friend Bernice Saroni, seemingly unaware of the brewing storm online. While many wished her a happy birthday, a significant number of followers urged her to make sure Samidoh was okay.
Online reactions ranged from heartfelt concern to sharp criticism. Some netizens pleaded with Edday to reach out and support her husband, suspecting that he might be going through an emotional crisis. Others questioned the public’s focus on Samidoh during what was meant to be a celebratory moment for Edday, arguing that adults are responsible for managing their own emotional well-being.
A few voices stood out in the flurry of comments, with one user pleading, “Mama, we are worried. Confirm to us if the son of the soil is okay.” Another chimed in, “Pray for your man… he is predicting untimely death.” Not all responses were sympathetic, however. One user pointedly remarked that while people now expected Edday to check on Samidoh, they seemed to forget how she had previously suffered in silence while he was allegedly out enjoying life elsewhere.
Despite the mixed reactions, the overarching sentiment from fans is one of worry and hope that Samidoh is safe and receiving any support he may need. As a beloved figure in the Kenyan music scene, his well-being is of great importance to his followers. Many are now watching closely for any updates, hoping for reassurance that all is well.
