Kenya, Sept. 4 -- After a dramatic online fight that split followers, Shalkido asks Terence Creative for forgiveness. Paul Koigi Mungai, a former member of Sailors 254, became angry during a live appearance on The Obinna Show and called the comic a hypocrite for giving financial advice without really helping.
Shalkido now says that his outburst was caused by years of personal problems and unfulfilled goals in the music business. Shalkido's climb to fame in the late 2010s with the Gengetone group Sailors 254 was very quick.
He became famous with hits like "Wamlambez," but the group's breakup in 2020 was hard on him. He attempted Mugithi music and side jobs, but nothing worked out, which caused him money problems.
He publicly asked Eric Omondi and Kenyans for help by August 2025. He even got a motorbike to start a boda boda business. These problems made people angry, which led to a fight. The fight started when Terence tweeted general advice on August 26, 2025, telling artists to make smart investments while they were famous.
Shalkido shot back on Obinna's show, even though he did not know him personally. He told Terence that as a Kikuyu, he should have helped him when he was down. "Unanitusia nini sasa" hurt, and things became worse with insults that surprised many who were following the Shalkido Terence feud.
Terence calmly answered from vacation, taking a break to post a video on September 3. He made it clear that the advise was general and not meant for Shalkido, and he recommended a change in thinking.
"Do not let your past mistakes define you," he added, offering KSh 20,000 when he got back. This act showed that there were no hard feelings and that growth was more important than beef. People on social media were quite supportive of Terence's maturity during the drama.
Shalkido asks Terence Creative for forgiveness as he starts to feel bad about what he did. In later posts, he said that the things that made him angry were the things that went wrong in his life, such failing businesses and family stress. The 2025 exchange shows the problems in the entertainment business, where stardom fades quickly without a plan.
Shalkido's openness about his mental health problems, such how he got depressed after going viral, makes his apologetic story more interesting. Fans say that Shalkido's openness is a sign of healing. Many people are posting about their post-fame blues online, and searches for Shalkido life troubles are on the rise.
Milly Chebby, Terence's wife, even liked comments that were supportive, which showed that they were together. This moment could help artists remember that their mindset affects how they come back. The apology makes a bigger point about the Kenyan entertainment industry.
Shalkido, who used to be a Gengetone star, now wants to make up for his past mistakes by changing his behaviours. Terence's promise gives hope, showing that forgiveness can heal wounds.
Shalkido's story gives hope to others who have been let down in the same way that he has. Shalkido ultimately seeks pardon from Terence Creative to progress. Blaming problems on life shows growth and turns disagreement into a potential for good. This chapter could be the real turning point for Shalkido, with support pouring in. Fans are still hopeful for more from the strong artist.
