Celebrated Kamba gospel artist Stephen Kasolo, popularly known as Kitole, has fiercely denied allegations linking him to the theft of Diana Bahati’s iPhone during the lavish traditional wedding of VIP tailor Bolo Bespoke and his wife, Miss Mueni, in Masii, MachakosCounty. The event, which took place three weeks ago, was graced by top personalities from the entertainment, fashion, and showbiz industries.
The claims emerged on TikTok, where several users insinuated that Kasolo might have been involved in the phone’s disappearance. However, the gospel artist, who is no stranger to controversy, took to his social media platforms to shut down the rumors, accusing those spreading the allegations of malicious intent.
“I am beyond such accusations. I have worked hard to build my brand, and I won’t let baseless claims tarnish my name. I even reached out to Diana’s husband, Bahati, to clear my name, but he hasn’t responded yet,” Kasolo revealed in an interview with blogger-turned-YouTuber RickB.
In a surprising twist, Kasolo appeared to use the negative publicity to his advantage, dropping a new song yesterday that has since gone viral. The timing of the song’s release, coinciding with his promise to address the allegations, has raised eyebrows, with some speculating whether the phone scandal was a mere publicity stunt to promote his music.
As Kasolo’s new song continues to trend, the mystery of Diana Bahati’s missing iPhone remains unresolved, leaving fans and critics alike questioning the true nature of the scandal.
