A video showing musicians Jovial and Willy Paul getting cosy has gone viral online sparking mixed reactions.
The video emerged moments after Jovial, in a statement on her Instagram page, hinted at getting into a relationship.
Willy Paul and Jovial
Jovial was seen in the company of Willy Paul moments after she landed at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.
Willy Paul picked her up at the airport using his newly acquired matatu but they later got into a separate vehicle.
It was in the vehicle where the two musicians were seen holding hands while Willy Paul was driving the vehicle.
Jovial appeared to be recording the videos.
Willy Paul gushes over Jovial
Some time in August, Willy Paul shared a series of public messages in a desperate attempt to woo Jovial for a romantic relationship.
The singer made a post where he begged Jovial to consider his offer and agree to be his girlfriend, noting that given a chance, he will make her the happiest woman.
“Jovial atleast kuwa na utu. Sikatai watu wanasema mimi ni bwana mkunaji, I don’t know why… in life lazima kila mtu anachoka na anaamua kutulia mimi hapa naomba nitulie na wewe
“Nobody is perfect so we shouldn’t judge someone based on his or her past.. Man is to error, but If you give me this chance then for sure I’ll make you the happiest woman on the planet earth,” Willy Paul wrote.
Willy Paul drops mkunaji nickname
In January, the musician announced that he had decided to drop his popular Bwana mkunaji nickname.
He said that he will not associate with the name claiming that it is evil and causes him a lot of problems.
“I would like to take this opportunity to let everyone know that from today henceforth I will not be using the name “MKUNAJI”
“It’s evil and I don’t want to be associated with it! Ever since I embraced the name I’ve had too many problems,” Willy Paul said.
The name “Mkunaji” has always been translated by his music fans to mean that he loves women.
