In the wake of a turbulent 24 hours on social media, Kenyan comedian Mulamwah has confessed to being in the wrong and believes he deserves punishment for his recent actions against his ex-girlfriend and baby mama, Ruth K. The public uproar followed his admission of leaking private photos of Ruth K, an act that drew sharp criticism online and left fans questioning his integrity.
The controversy exploded after an online influencer harshly criticized Mulamwah, noting that such conduct would be considered a serious criminal offense in many countries, potentially resulting in a jail sentence. Responding to the backlash, Mulamwah didn’t try to defend himself. Instead, he shockingly agreed with the sentiment, stating that he indeed wished for jail time. He admitted guilt, expressed remorse, and even suggested that serving a sentence might provide him with much-needed time away from everything.
His statement read: “Actually that was the wish. Needed time off kidogo. Guilty as charged. Shame is all mine.”
While some interpreted this as a sincere moment of reflection, others remained skeptical. Some questioned whether his remorse was genuine or a strategic move to salvage his image in the public eye. Notably, the comic had earlier posted on his Instagram stories, subtly hinting at his emotional turmoil and struggle with the fallout. He questioned whether experiencing regret is more powerful than never having the opportunity to show it in the future.
In a lengthy, cryptic message, he shared thoughts about shame, death, and resilience. He downplayed fears of embarrassment or loss, writing about how shame eventually fades and that money lost could always be regained. The message also included a sentiment about living life on one’s own terms and not being controlled by public opinion or fear of judgment.
This philosophical musing, however, didn’t land well with everyone. While some fans offered him words of encouragement, many others felt the remarks only added to the confusion about his true intentions. Some followers pointed out that instead of focusing on redemption, the comedian appeared to be trying to rationalize his actions.
Adding to the drama, Mulamwah stirred up further confusion after sharing a photo of his damaged Mercedes-Benz. The image showed serious scratches on the front left side of the vehicle. In his caption, he mentioned that the accident had happened very quickly and expressed gratitude that no one had been hurt. Initially, fans flooded the comments with prayers and well-wishes. But soon, skepticism crept in when it was revealed that the accident had occurred months earlier. Some accused the comedian of trying to divert attention from the scandal with a sympathy ploy.
The unfolding events have left followers split, with some calling for accountability and others urging him to take time for personal healing. What’s clear is that the episode has cast a significant shadow on his public image, one that may take time to repair. Whether Mulamwah’s statements are the beginning of genuine remorse and transformation or a bid to regain public favor remains to be seen.
