Since Saturday, the rapper has repeatedly said that his life is in danger from people has not yet named.
In addition, Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru has also threatened to sue the rapper for defamation.
Kenyans on Twitter shared words of encouragement directed to the rapper, including some of them offering to take him to the DCI as a show of solidarity.
Be UNAPOLOGETIC.
