Umechoma! Avril criticised for ‘forgiveness’ message after alleged assault by J Blessing


Renowned Kenyan singer Judith Nyambura Mwangi, popularly known as Avril, has opened up to her fans about the challenges in her seven-year relationship with music director J Blessing.

In a candid revelation on her Instagram stories, the artist known for hits like “Chokoza” shared a heartfelt plea for forgiveness on behalf of her baby daddy.

Acknowledging the struggles within their relationship, Avril, who is typically private about her personal life, expressed the heaviness in her heart, prompting her to disclose the difficulties they’ve been facing.

“I forgive you J, please find it in your hearts to forgive him too. Everyone is deserving of forgiveness in this life,” part of Avril’s statement read.

Avril emphasized the need for change and shared that both she and J Blessing are committed to seeking help and learning healthier ways to communicate and resolve issues.

Avril’s message has caused a public reaction with most of her fans emphasizing the importance of addressing domestic violence seriously.

However, some fans expressed skepticism and concern about Avril’s plea for forgiveness:
