‘WE ARE IN GOOD TERMS’ DJ JOE MFALME TALKS FRIENDSHIP WITH HYPE BALLO

Celebrated deejay Joseph Mwenda alias DJ Joe Mfalme has addressed on-air rumours that he snitched on his friend Allan Ochieng, popularly known as Hype Ballo, in the murder case of senior detective Felix Kelian.

In an exclusive interview with Ankali Ray on Milele FM, DJ Joe Mfalme said that Hype Ballo and him are on good terms. “People don’t know the full story, and since the matter is currently in court, I prefer not to comment on it but I want to make it clear that Hype Ballo and I are still in good terms. However, due to the ongoing investigations, we are not allowed to discuss the case,” DJ Joe Mfalme stated.

Mfalme firmly denied rumours that his friends deserted him during his time in incarceration “People showed up. A lot. I was overwhelmed and I appreciated it a lot. Work has to continue. We can’t stop working,” he added.

DJ Joe Mfalme and six other individuals were brought before the Kibera Law Courts on Monday, April 8. The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) applied to drop the charges against DJ Joe Mfalme and five other co-accused, recommending them to serve as state witnesses in the murder case of Kelian. Among the accused-turned-state witnesses are Eric Kariuki Gathua, Simon Wambugu Wanjiru, Khadija Abdi Wako, Sammy Cheruiyot Rotich and Agnes Kerubo Mogoiare.

However, Hype Ballo was to be charged with the murder. “The ODPP has further recommended that the 1st accused, Allan Ochieng, be charged with the murder of the late senior cop attached to DCI Dagoretti. Allan Ochieng is to take a plea at Kiambu Law Court and be charged with murder,” the ODPP stated.
