Controversial Tiktoker Rose Atieno aka Nyako Pilot has confessed that she has some slight problems upstairs.
Nyako opened up about her brain occasionally losing network while speaking in a live session with her fans on TikTok.
During that particular session, the fiery Germany-based TikToker was asked to give her honest opinion about select Kenyan celebrities.
Nyako highlighted her faulty mental capacity while giving her opinion about controversial US-based content creator Andrew Kibe.
She explained that she could vibe with Kibe because he understands her craziness.
“Kibe is somebody I think I can vibe with because most of the occasions he has complimented me, he knows my worth and he understands my craziness. He knows that I am not 100 per cent upstairs coz sometimes my upstairs makes whiu whiu (whistles while trying to demonstrate how her brain works). So Kibe knows that I am a very intelligent lady who has a little bit of problems upstairs, but we are good, mimi na Kibe we are good,” Nyako said.
Heart condition
Nyako opened up about her heart condition while speaking during an interview with Vincent Mboya in October 2023.
The TikToker revealed that she was diagnosed with a heart problem after getting a Covid-19 jab.
“I don’t take alcohol at all, I am under medication. I am suffering heart problem, after the Corona vaccination I developed this condition. But even before that, I stopped drinking 10 years ago. I am clean I don’t drink at all. I don’t use anything, I am always sober,” Nyako said.
The Germany-based provocateur further noted that if she doesn’t drink a lot of water her heart gets clogged and has to seek medical attention immediately.
She added that the heart condition keeps her in the hospital most of the time, thanking the healthcare system in Germany for its proficiency.
“I am having a heart condition that lands me in the hospital most of the time. I don’t drink a lot of water and then my heart gets clogged and I have to be attended to. You know Germany, the medical response is number one. If you are suffering from a heart condition like me you just press the dial and the whole team is at the doorstep. So I am having a heart condition that keeps me in the hospital always but so far so good I have good medication,” she added.
Prostitution
In the same interview, the controversial TikToker also confessed that she was christened ‘Nyako’ by fellow sex workers while she was still working as a prostitute in Kenya.
“[My real name is] Rose Atieno. Nyako came from the street, I used to be a prostitute that is where the name came from. From the ‘Njeris’, they gave me that name,” Nyako said.
Asked if she felt ashamed for saying she used to be a prostitute, Nyako said she could not change her past. She added that her past made her who she is today.
“I cannot run away from my past. I can only change what I do now but I cannot run away from my past because my past made me who I am today,” Nyako said.
HIV
In a self-recorded video, Nyako said both her mother and father died from HIV/AIDS, adding that the virus also killed her two sisters.
Nyako explained that her father, mother and one sister died when there was no antiretroviral (ARV) – a regimen for persons with HIV.
She added that her other sister died when ARV was in existence, revealing that the HIV regimen overwhelmed her causing kidney failure.
“Both my parents died of HIV and Aids and both my two sisters died of HIV and Aids. Those days hakukua na dawa. One of my sisters died when she was only one. The virus was too much for her, she died a painful death. One died when she was only one and the second one died when she was 12. Huyu alikufa kama kuna dawa there was already medication lakini dawa ilienda ikamlemea ikacause kidney failure she died when she was 12. Alikua anakunywa madawa but ilimlemea,” Nyako said.
