J Blessing addresses allegations he beat up Avril
On November 14, 2023, singer Avril Nyambura posted pictures of her damaged face to Instagram Stories, which she quickly removed. Online communities expressed a wide range of opinions and worries in response to the unsettling photos, which rapidly went viral.
Avril bluntly attacked her baby daddy and well-known music director, J Blessing, in the since-deleted tweet, writing, “J Blessing unikome…” and using strong language after that. Avril took to social media to express her dismay at the public’s response to domestic violence. She criticized Kenyans, highlighting the seriousness of the problem and calling for increased awareness.
She expressed her disapproval of the internet mockery of such serious issues on Nairobi Gossip’s Instagram page, writing, “I’m shocked to read the comments. This is why people never report or post this shit because you guys make people want to commit suicide after everything they’ve been through. Enjoy your laugh and say “bye.”
He refused to comment when asked about the situation. He dismissed it with a joke, implying that he would use his social media accounts to address the matter if he choose to do so.
When contacted, Avril’s phone number was inaccessible.
Many Kenyans who were disturbed by the images rushed to social media to voice their outrage, denouncing domestic abuse and demanding responsibility:
J Blessing and Avril have been quietly dating for some time now, and they have never come clean about their relationship to the world.
I Thriveinchaos: There is no justification for this; he must face the law.
_ms_ngendo: This is extremely heartbreaking,the comments even worse.
