Each woman has taken the microphone to share heartfelt stories of love and the life they shared with the late Ohangla musician, leaving mourners in a state of confusion about who truly held his heart.

The late musician, who passed away on June 30, 2026, after suffering from a mysterious illness, had previously spoken about feeling targeted by spiritual attacks and industry rivalry. His family had appealed for financial assistance to cover his escalating medical expenses before his death, indicating the severity of his condition. The claims from these women have added layers of complexity to the mourning process, as they recount their intimate connections with Ndiema.

Tony Ndiema, born Anton Okoth Ochieng on December 12, 1989, was a celebrated Ohangla musician from Homa Bay County, known for his soulful music that resonated with many across Kenya. His sudden passing has left a significant void in the Ohangla music scene, with tributes pouring in from fans and fellow musicians alike. Notably, Prince Indah, another prominent Ohangla artist, led tributes, describing Ndiema as a colleague, friend, and brother whose legacy will endure.

The emotional atmosphere at the funeral reflects the broader impact of Ndiema's life and music. His family has organized two candle-lighting ceremonies to honor his memory, with gatherings scheduled at EGESA Villa in Umoja One and Fine Breeze in Dagoretti Corner. These events highlight the community's desire to celebrate his life and contributions to the Ohangla genre, which has been a significant part of Kenya's cultural landscape.
