Jeff Mwathi’s grandmother has maintained that DJ Fatxo brutally murdered her grandson.
Mwathi died on February 22, 2023, after falling from Kikuyu singer DJ Fatxo’s 10th-floor apartment in Kasarani. The DJ has distanced himself from the incident.
Speaking during an interview on Nakuru Today YouTube channel, Mwathi’s grandmother said she suspected that DJ Fatxo was bribing his way out of her grandson’s murder.
“Naomba tu kama inawezekana huyu mtu afungwe aondolewe tu kwa binadamu mwingine, aondolewe tu kwa raia sababu sasa pengine mtu anajidai sababu ako na pesa lakini hajui Mungu. Sijui kama ni pesa ilipeanwa ama haijapeanwa lakini vile hii mambo imeenda imewekwa giza giza hivi inaonekana tu kuna kenye kiliendelea,” she said.
The granny insisted that DJ Fatxo killed the deceased.
“Ningeomba huyo mtu atolewe kabisa kwa community aende afungwe sababu kitu ya kupanga kuua mtu ndo utajirike? Binadamu ni nani kwa wewe? Kwani moyo ya binadamu inatokanga pesa ngapi?”
The granny further claimed that DJ Fatxo offered Jeff Mwathi as a sacrifice in a ritual that was to make him a big star like the deceased’s uncle Samidoh.
She claimed that after Jeff’s death, the suspect posted a photoshopped image of Samidoh with the head showing his (DJ Fatxo’s) face.
“Anajua Samidoh ni uncle ya Jeff na kwa nini ile picha aliweka 22nd ya Samidoh mbaka hivi pande yote ni Samidoh na juu ameweka ni yeye. Si anasema sababu alitoa sacrifice mtoto wa kina Samidoh sasa naye atakua star, si ndo anaonyesha? Kwani mtu mjinga haoni kabisa?” She said.
Mwathi’s grandmother added that DJ Fatxo took photos of the deceased while he was tied and sent them to several people before her grandson was thrown off the building.
“Sijui unaonga kwa footage ya CCTV venye hio maneno walimfanyia. Na ata kabla hio mtoto arushwe chini picha yake niliona wamemuua amelalishwa pahali wamefunga na kitu nyeusi hivi. Si alimpiga picha na akatumia several people. Sahio bado hawajamrusha chini,” she said.
DJ Fatxo haunted
Jeff Mwathi’s grandmother further revealed that she asked her grandson not to rest in his grave but instead haunt his killer.
The granny said Jeff’s ghost should be appearing to DJ Fatxo everywhere he goes until he confesses.
“Ata juzi nliskia ati anataka kuingia kwa ndege aende nkaambia watoto wangu muachane na yeye. Anatoroka mikononi mwa sheria lakini hajatoroka mikononi mwa Mungu. Kila pahali ataenda damu ya Jeff itakua ikimfwata ata sahi naomba hivyo. Ataendanga tu kwa njia anaona Jeff. Naambianga Jeff asilale. Amuulizange ulinuulia nini, uliniua kwa nini. Akienda kunywa chai anaona ni damu ya Jeff. Akienda kuoga anaona ni damu ya Jeff. Kila pahali penye atakua akienda naombanga tu Mungu akue akikutana tu na Jeff,” she said.
