2Mbili Calls for Release of Streamer Vindee After Arrest During June 25 Protests

Posted on June 26, 2026 by Ozymandias

YouTuber and car reviewer 2Mbili has joined calls for the release of Kenyan streamer Vindee following his arrest during the June 25 demonstrations in Nairobi.

In a message shared on Instagram on Thursday, June 25, 2026, 2Mbili expressed concern over Vindee’s welfare, particularly after learning that the streamer had been taken into police custody during a cold day while wearing light clothing.

According to 2Mbili, Vindee should not spend the night at Central Police Station, noting that the streamer was arrested while dressed in only a Maasai shuka and sandals.

“Vindee should not spend the night at the Central Police Station!! He only had the Maasai Shuka and the sandals!! Let’s save him from this cold and other things!!” 2Mbili wrote.

He accompanied his message with the hashtags #FreeVindee and #FreeISawSpeed, a nickname linked to the streamer among some of his supporters.

Vindee’s Arrest During Demonstrations

The appeal came hours after Vindee was arrested in Nairobi’s Central Business District (CBD) during demonstrations held to commemorate victims of the 2024 Gen Z protests.

The popular streamer had been moving through the CBD with members of his team, including his videographer and several supporters, while livestreaming events from the streets.

The situation changed when a plain-clothed officer approached and detained him, with the incident captured live on camera.

Footage from the scene showed confusion breaking out immediately after the arrest, as Vindee’s team and supporters tried to understand what was happening.

His videographer appeared visibly shaken while continuing to record the unfolding events, and viewers watching the livestream reacted strongly, demanding answers over the reason behind the arrest.

The incident quickly gained attention online, with clips from the arrest circulating widely across social media platforms.

Commemorating June 25 Protests

Vindee’s detention happened as thousands of Kenyans gathered across the country to mark the anniversary of the June 2024 anti-government protests.

The demonstrations were held to honour young Kenyans who lost their lives during the protests while renewing calls for justice and accountability.

The June 2024 protests became one of Kenya’s most significant youth-led movements in recent years, sparked by opposition to proposed tax measures and broader concerns about governance.

2Mbili discusses helplessly watching Shalkido die

Posted on October 8, 2025 by Ozymandias

Gengetone musician Kevin Mburu Kinyanjui, popularly known as Shalkido, passed away on October 7, 2025, after several days of battling for his life following a devastating road accident.

Just hours before his death, doctors at Kenyatta University Teaching, Referral, and Research Hospital (KUTRRH) confirmed the heartbreaking news that Shalkido had been declared brain dead.

A Painful Farewell in the ICU

Content creator 2Mbili, a longtime friend who knew Shalkido from his early comedy days, was among those who visited him in the ICU. Speaking afterward, 2Mbili recounted the emotional final moments he spent at the hospital.

He arrived at KUTRRH around 2 a.m., where he met members of Shalkido’s family and waited for nearly an hour before being allowed into the intensive care unit.

“I went to the ICU and looked at Shalkido. There was a lot of blood coming out of his ears. He was connected to so many pipes — maybe around 100. I just prayed to God to help him, but deep down I knew it would be very hard for him to survive,” 2Mbili shared.

Doctors had already prepared the family for the worst, explaining that Shalkido’s brain and kidneys had completely failed, and that he had lost all five senses, including the ability to feel or smell.

The medical team discussed options with the family, noting that continuing life support would be costly and unlikely to change the outcome. 2Mbili left the hospital around 5:30 a.m., only to receive news less than an hour later that Shalkido had passed away.

Understanding the Diagnosis

The confirmation of brain death marked the point of no return. Medically and legally, brain death signifies total and irreversible loss of all brain and brainstem function, meaning the person cannot breathe or sustain vital processes without machines.

According to earlier updates shared by comedian Oga Obinna, Shalkido had suffered extensive internal bleeding and brain swelling. The injuries were described as inoperable, making any surgical intervention impossible.

The Road Accident

The tragic accident occurred in the early hours of Sunday, October 5, 2025, along Thika Road, between Githurai and Carwash, as Shalkido rode a motorcycle toward Nairobi after performing at a club in Thika.

2Mbili recalled that they had recently discussed road safety and that he had specifically reminded Shalkido always to wear a helmet — a conversation that now feels painfully haunting.

Shalkido’s death has reignited public concern about Kenya’s rising road carnage. As of August 10, 2025, the country had recorded 2,933 road traffic fatalities since the beginning of the year, according to the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA).

A Call for Unity

In his tribute, 2Mbili urged fans and fellow artists to come together in support of Shalkido’s family, calling on the Sailors Gang fraternity and the wider entertainment community to unite during this difficult time.

“Let’s stand with his family, pray for them, and keep his memory alive,” he said.

Dem Wa Facebook Accuses 2 Mbili of Inappropriate Conduct Towards His Employee, Jackie

Posted on September 13, 2024 by Ozymandias

Kenyan digital creator and comedian Dem Wa Facebook has criticized YouTuber 2 Mbili for what he described as inappropriate behavior, accusing him of “eating the stock.”

While co-hosting a weekly show with his “Online babe” Oga Obinna, Dem Wa Facebook alleged that 2 Mbili may have been pursuing his former employee, Jackie Vida, soon after dismissing her. He remarked, “Si niliwaambianga 2 Mbili anakula stock mnasema, oooohh…huyo hata saa hii si 2 Mbili ni tu tatu,” implying that 2 Mbili was behaving inappropriately.

Obinna backed up these claims by revealing that during their Kitale Tour, 2 Mbili took to the stage to apologize to his ex-employee, Jackie, after letting her go. “2Mbili alikuja kubembelezana Kitale…,” Obinna added during their show.

Dem Wa Facebook further shared an incident where 2 Mbili knocked on their room door, where she was staying with Jackie Vida, 2 Mbili’s former employee. When she went to open the door, she was surprised to see 2 Mbili, as she expected Obinna.

According to Dem Wa Facebook, 2 Mbili intended to speak with Jackie, but she prevented that from happening. However, 2 Mbili later apologized to Jackie on stage, and it seems they may have resolved their issues for now.
