“People always think that Stevo is the one using his Instagram and TikTok account. But it’s not him. Some people complain that if they want to send him something small, they cannot find him, this is because he is not the one managing the accounts. Anaumia sana (he is suffering) and this always hurts me,” Atieno said in the interview.

She further claimed that her husband’s management team has taken advantage of him, potentially contributing to his financial challenges.
