The popular entertainer took to Instagram stories to pay tribute to his late spouse and express his grief.

Brownskin shared a post that showed a lit candle in a dark background, with P. Diddy and Faith Evans’s song I’ll Be Missing You playing in the background. The song is a tribute to the late rapper Notorious B.I.G.

The DJ angered Kenyans after a video emerged of him capturing the last moments as his wife ended her life.

Brownskin's wife was seen on video taking substances in a container before she started writhing in pain as her life slowly came to an end.

The video was recorded at their residence in Garden Estate, Kasarani, Nairobi. She later passed away while receiving treatment at a medical facility.

Njeri was buried at her parents' home in Koimbe Weithaga village, Murang’a County, on August 6, 2022.
