In recent weeks, the popular musician known for his hit song “Mihadarati” found himself embroiled in a conflict with his former management. The dispute arose when his wife raised concerns about their dire living conditions. Stivo and his partner were allegedly going without food for days, a situation that garnered significant attention from the Kenyan public.
In response to the distressing situation, kind-hearted individuals came to Stivo’s aid. He was relocated to a new residence and received essential household items to help him get back on his feet. One such generous benefactor was the Member of Parliament for Mumias East, who not only covered Stivo’s rent but also pledged to construct a house for him in his hometown.
However, this act of goodwill didn’t sit well with the management company, MIB (Men in Business). They swiftly refuted the claims made by Stivo and promptly terminated his contract, leaving him with no option but to start over from scratch.
To exacerbate matters, Stivo faced another obstacle as the management refused to relinquish control of his social media accounts. This presented a significant setback for the artist, as he struggled to promote his new songs without access to his established online presence. In frustration, Stivo mentioned his intention to pursue legal action if the management continued to withhold his accounts.
This isn’t the first time Stivo has found himself in such a contentious situation with his former bosses. He had a similar dispute with his previous management in Kibra a few years back, where they also refused to hand over his social media handles, forcing him to rebuild his online presence from scratch.
Despite these challenges, Stivo remains optimistic about his career’s potential and believes he is on the cusp of reaching new heights as an artist. His goal is to rebuild and reestablish his brand before the year 2023 comes to a close.
