In an Instagram post offering condolences for Jahmby Koikai, Kriss Darlin’s words triggered a backlash from colleagues and fans.
“It’s now TIME to POST PICS with the DEPARTED but when she asked and needed BLOOD DONATIONS & HELP NOBODY POSTED PICS,” stated Kriss Darlin.
DJ Xclusive didn’t hold back, expressing his dissatisfaction with Kriss Darlin’s viewpoint. “So now you’re dictating how people will mourn? Surely 😒😒😒 people show support in different ways, not everyone has to donate blood… some may choose to pray for her or send an encouraging message… I’m sure this sounded smart when typing but it’s not,” DJ Xclusive remarked.

Publicist Anyiko Awoko also chimed in, emphasizing the positive aspects of honoring Jahmby’s memory. “Jahmby doesn’t deserve this odd comment. Many people and friends posted about the blood request and have helped in other instances. There are also people who help but don’t post. Let’s just celebrate her and stay positive. That’s what she would appreciate,” Awoko emphasized.
The sentiment of disappointment was echoed in the comments, with Hillas Hillary highlighting the personal nature of mourning. “I’m disappointed that you would even think like that. For the past 17 years, she battled the disease. Were you the only one who supported her or what are you saying??? So we can’t mourn regardless?? Mourning is personal, and many people were always championing for her,” Hillary expressed.
DJ Moh Spice added to the conversation, labeling Kriss Darlin’s post “irresponsible” and emphasizing the variety of support methods. “Such an irresponsible post… People help others in different ways. Just because it’s not posted online doesn’t mean it’s not happening…!!! Do good and move on. Smh! #Disappointed,” DJ Moh Spice remarked.
Fans also voiced their discontent with Kriss Darlin’s comments, with many questioning how he personally aided Jahmby.
