Tanzanian gospel artist Rose Muhando has addressed recent accusations of non-performance and deception made by Kenyan artist Ali Mukhwana. Mukhwana alleged that Muhando had double-booked herself for events, pocketing payment without fulfilling her obligations.

According to Mukhwana, he and several other clergy members had booked Muhando for a crusade, paying a total of Kshs 250,000 for the performance and booking fee. However, they later discovered through posters circulated online that she had booked other shows on the same date.

Mukhwana confronted Muhando about the conflicting schedules. While initially unconvinced, he eventually accepted her explanation that the additional posters were fraudulent attempts to capitalize on her image.

Despite this, Mukhwana remains upset and wary, expressing concern for other potential victims.

“I would like to warn other gospel artists and pastors not to pay her any money until they see her at their event,” he cautioned.

Rose Muhando has yet to issue a formal statement addressing these accusations directly. However, she has publicly denounced con artists exploiting her reputation and vowed to take legal action against them.

The situation has sparked controversy within the Kenyan and Tanzanian gospel communities, raising questions about artist professionalism and ethical conduct. While the truth remains unclear, the incident serves as a reminder of the importance of due diligence and transparency in managing artist bookings and payments.

Tanzanian gospel star Rose Muhando has spoken out against rumors that she failed to fulfill a concert engagement and pocketed a Sh200,000 payment for the canceled performance.

Taking to her Instagram account, the “Nibebe” hitmaker addressed the allegations, urging those with concerns to seek recourse through legal channels rather than resorting to social media accusations.

Muhando acknowledged the challenges faced by public figures and cautioned against readily believing everything one hears about someone. She emphasized her ongoing commitments in Nairobi and suggested that any grievances be addressed through proper legal channels.

The singer also shed light on the often-undiscussed challenges musicians face in their line of work, noting that they, too, experience persecution.

“When you are a public figure, many things will come your way, and you will be accused of many things. Do not easily believe everything you hear about someone,” she stated.

Muhando continued, “In short, I am here in Nairobi, continuing with my meetings. If you have any claims, there are legal channels. We, as musicians, have never come out publicly to speak about the challenges we face in our services.”

She highlighted that musicians often face persecution and work closely with religious leaders, implying that such persecution can originate from within the religious community.

“We, too, face persecution, and a significant percentage of us work closely with religious leaders. Therefore, if we are persecuted, it means we are persecuted by these religious leaders, but we do not complain. Now, I would like to stop here for what is ongoing,” she concluded.

The controversy arose on December 4 when gospel singer Ali Mukhwana accused Muhando of defrauding him of Sh200,000 after agreeing to perform at a crusade.

Mukhwana alleged that Muhando accepted the payment but failed to show up for the event, citing illness as an excuse. He further claimed that Muhando had committed to attending five other crusades on the same date, indicating a pattern of deceptive behavior.

Disappointed by Muhando’s actions, Mukhwana warned others against engaging her for their events, labeling her as dishonest.

Muhando’s response to the allegations underscores the importance of due diligence and the need to address grievances through appropriate channels. While social media can serve as a platform for voicing concerns, it should not replace the pursuit of legal recourse when warranted.

Rose Muhando has been admitted at a Nairobi hospital after being taken ill. The troubled Tanzanian singer is in dire need of help according to her spokesperson Daudi Mashimo.

Rose’s troubles started when a video emerged online showing controversial Apostle James Ng’ang’a of Neno Evangelism Center exorcising demons out of her.

Weeks later after the video, Rose indicated all was well when she dropped a new song dubbed ‘Watangoja Sana’ just when everybody was thinking her career was going into a nosedive.

Government assistance

Daudi Mashimo confirmed that Rose Muhando has been admitted for several days at a Nairobi hospital during an interview with Tanzanian newspaper Risasi Mchanganyiko.

The aide said Muhando needed help from Tanzanian government to return home for medical attention since she only came to Kenya for work.

“Kiukweli Rose anahitaji sana msaada wa serikali ili aweze kurudi nchini aje atibiwe huku maana ndiyo nyumbani. Kule Kenya alikwenda kikazi tu hivyo anaiomba sana serikali iingilie kati hilo kwani mpaka sasa amelazwa hospitali. Pamoja na serikali pia anawaomba Watanzania wamuombee ili aweze kurejea katika hali yake ya kawaida ili aweze kuwaburudisha kama zamani,” said Daudi Mashimo.

Just when you thought Rose Muhando’s career was going into a nosedive she resurfaces with a new song dubbed ‘Watangoja Sana’, as if sending message to critics.

The Tanzanian gospel singer trended on social media for days after a video clip emerged online showing controversial preacher James Ng’ang’a exorcising demons out of her.

Several persons including folks from Tanzania tried to intervene to save Rose Muhando after the exorcism video surfaced but she rebuffed all attempts.

Publicity stunt?

Some people are now questioning whether the whole exorcism drama was just a publicity stunt meant to give Rose Muhando traction before she released a new song.

The Tanzanian gospel singer has featured Jose of the ‘kama ndrama, kama findio’ fame in her new song – ‘Watangoja Sana’.

It’s been a while since Kenyans saw gospel singer Rose Muhando, who, was once a popular hit maker. But many were shocked after recently seeing the star.

A photo has been doing rounds on social media that shows a rather emaciated Muhando that left many shocked. Many argued that the singer is struggling and hooked on drugs.

Set to move to Kenya

There has been speculation that the popular singer was hooked on drugs. Muhando, however, shot down the allegations insisting that she is doing fine. She also shared that she’s planning to relocate to Kenya from her mother country Tanzania in 2017.

Nothing is for free in this world, gospel singer Rose Muhando learnt that the hard way; a pastor who offered her financial assistance now demands sexual favors in return.

Rose Muhando is contemplating to permanently relocate to Kenya just to get as far away as possible from a sex predator who is on a mission to get his due.

Speaking to Wikienda newspaper, the Tanzanian songbird opened up about her ordeal. She revealed that a thirsty pastor (whose identity she kept anonymous) was determined to bed her as reciprocation of his kindness.

Apparently the said cleric helped her raise money for her music production and now he wants Rose Muhando to return the favor.

Muhando told Wikienda that things turned ugly when she refused to spread legs for the pastor; he started harassing her and even issuing threats to her.

The singer claims that the well-connected man of the cloth has been using the police to harass her and had even vowed to take away her cars and other valuables.

“Kwa kuwa anafahamiana na polisi, wakuu wa vituo vya polisi na viongozi wa dini, inakuwa rahisi kunisingizia mambo mengi machafu. Situmii madawa ya kulevya na sitatumia. Kama aliona ndiyo skendo itakayo-nimaliza, najua atashindwa, anayefanya hivyo ni mtu anayetaka kunimaliza, alitaka niwe mtu wake wa ngono na kumfanyia kazi, nikakataa.

“Sijawahi kujiingiza kwenya madawa ya kulevya na anavyozungumza, nasikitika kwa sababu anaiumiza familia yangu kisaikolojia. Mimi ni mama wa watoto watatu (Gift, Nicolas na Maximilian) na nina ndugu zangu, nasingiziwa mambo hayo kwa sababu sina mtetezi lakini ni vyema akajua mtetezi wangu ni Mungu.

“Lakini hii yote ni kwa kuwa nimekataa kulala naye. Napigwa hadi nazimia, wanaume walinizalisha na kunitelekeza, wameniumiza sana, afadhali ningefanyiwa mambo hayo na wanawake wenzangu, sasa natishiwa kifo, natamani hata kuhama nchi, hivi kweli akiona ninaishi nchini Kenya, ndiyo furaha yake?

“Lakini Mungu yupo na mbingu zitafunguka. Amekuwa akinizushia maneno makali, wakati mwingine nashinda porini, nikitetea maisha yangu. Kiukweli nimechoka jamani, acheni nipumzike, lakini namuachia Mungu, mbingu zitafunguka.” Rose Muhando narrated her ordeal.
