Speaking to Nairobi News on November 3, 2022, Jemedari revealed that the tweet was inspired by funny situations where people make therapy a very mainstream ‘remedy’ even though some people are intentionally toxic and need an exorcism.
“Like, it’s above therapy, only an exorcism would work for toxicity/issues that are beyond therapy,” said Jemedari.

He also revealed that the tweet was about a few exes of his, but he did not think it would go as viral as it did.
“Like most creatives, I use my Twitter feed as a diary and scrapbook for random ideas, and I only share stuff for people who might think like me. Turns out my tweet really hit home.”
In one instance, he revealed to Nairobi News that one of his exes stalked him after they broke up and was a potential inspiration for his viral tweet.
“She showed up at shows, family events, showed up at my place to make it look like we were still together. Madness tuu. I moved (houses) and had to change phone numbers and deactivate my social media for a while. Always watch out for the red flags, even if they come in light pink,” said Jemedari.
