Activist Boniface Mwangi's wife Njeri Mwangi has broken silence after her husband posted a cryptic message on Facebook on Saturday, Augsut 3, attracting mixed reactions.
In a statement on Monday, August 5, Njeri expressed her gratitude for the love her family has received from Kenyans since then.
She apologised for not picking up calls and responding to text messages from concerned Kenyans.
“Friends and comrades, my apologies for the unanswered calls and un-responded texts. Please forgive and bear with me. We feel your utmost pure outpouring of love and support. We appreciate all of it. Thank you,” Njeri posted on X.
She, however, did not give any update on the well-being of her husband.

The activist on Saturday left many Kenyans guessing with his cryptic message, which left netizens worried about his state.
"Someone gets to a stage in life, and they decide this is it for them. They’re ready for the next world. The pain, troubles, and expectations of others in this world are too much. They exit the stage, celebrate their life. End of story," Mwangi posted on Facebook.
Journalist and social activist Hanifa Farsafi later claimed that she could not reach him and asserted that she had spoken to him days before the post.
"Boniface Mwangi has deactivated his accounts and we can’t get hold of him too especially after the post he made. I spoke to him the other day and asked if he was okay and he mentioned how the attacks are always getting to him and my heart is so broken for him," Hanifa posted on X.
Mwangi had been vocal during the recent anti-government protests, which led to his arrest before he was later freed on cash bail.
