NAIROBI, Kenya — Musician Stevo Simple Boy has reignited public interest in his long-running feud with former partner Pritty Vishy after publicly proposing a boxing match to settle their differences.
The singer made the remarks during an interview clip that has since circulated widely online, calling on media personality and content creator Oga Obinna to organize the bout.
“Akuje kwa ring tumalizane,” Stevo said, suggesting that a face-to-face showdown in the boxing ring would bring an end to years of public exchanges between the former couple.
Stevo alleged that Pritty Vishy has continued speaking negatively about him in public and indicated that he was ready for a direct confrontation. However, he did not provide specific examples of the alleged remarks.
The challenge has revived discussion around one of Kenya’s most talked-about celebrity breakups. Since ending their relationship, Stevo and Pritty Vishy have frequently made headlines through interviews and social media posts, often commenting on each other’s lives and careers.
The proposal was reportedly directed at Obinna, who has gained popularity for hosting celebrity interviews and facilitating public conversations that often generate significant online engagement.
While neither a formal boxing event nor a response from Pritty Vishy had been announced by the time of publication, the comments quickly sparked reactions across social media platforms.
Many users treated the challenge as entertainment rather than a serious sporting contest. Some poked fun at the singer’s remarks, while others questioned whether the proposal was genuine.
One Instagram user jokingly wrote, “STEVO SIMPLE BOY ❌ STEVO COMPLEX BOY ✅,” while another humorously suggested the musician was behaving unpredictably despite previously advocating against drug abuse.
Others framed the development as a continuation of unresolved tensions between the two public figures, with some social media users suggesting the pair should move on from their highly publicised disagreements.
The renewed attention highlights the enduring public fascination with celebrity relationships and online feuds in Kenya’s entertainment industry, where personal disputes often become topics of widespread discussion.
Whether the proposed boxing match materialises remains unclear, but Stevo’s challenge has once again placed the former couple at the centre of social media conversation.
