What you need to know:

  • The musician took to social media to apologise to the public following the backlash, saying the song was not meant for public consumption, but was a special request from a client from Germany.
  • "I never meant to disrespect women and they are the people I want to sincerely apologise to. This song was for a client," said Mr Aloka.

Popular Ohangla musician and Kanungo hitmaker Otieno Aloka is a wanted man because of a song that is said to be loaded with lewd lyrics that degrade women and support paedophilia.

The Kenya Film Classification Board Chief Executive Officer Ezekiel Mutua and Kisumu Woman Rep Rozah Buyu have called for the arrest of the musician for what they term as perverted lyrics aimed at polluting the minds of children.
