Jowie Irungu, a suspect in the murder of trader Monica Kimani, is going back to his earlier hustle of being a singer. He is set to release his first song, ‘Nishikilie’, today.

It will premiere on his YouTube Channel that so far has 550 subscribers. In the channel bio, Jowie describes himself as โ€œa conscious music artiste signed under Safri Recordsโ€.

He has been sharing spiritual messages on his Instagram page, which he deleted twice.

In one post, he shared a spiritual quote that reads, “What are you afraid of losing when nothing in the world belongs to you?”

Jowie was a member of a band that entertained revellers in Naivasha and Nakuru towns, where he was born and brought up.

He was a founder member of church choir Agape Stormers.

Daily Nation quoted a friend saying,

“He was an inspiring singer.

At Agape Church in Pangani Estate, off the busy Kanu Street in Nakuru Town, Irungu was a vocalist and an instrumentalist.”

A neighbour in Lanet, where the parents live, added, “He was such an amazing young man who was talented in music and had superb vocals. I was shocked when I saw his photograph in the newspapers as the main suspect in the Kilimani murder.”

Jowie is not the only musician in the family. One of his brothers is a guitarist, while an elder brother is in photography.

He is the secondborn in a family of two boys and two girls.

Jowie is facing murder charges involving businesswoman Monica Kimani, who was found dead in a bathtub in her house in Kilimani, Nairobi, in 2018.

He is co-accused alongside his ex-fiancรฉe, former news anchor Jacque Maribe.

He was released on Sh2 million cash bail in February this year and has been maintaining a low profile.
