Gospel singer and pastor Joan Wairimu has for the first time spoken about being in an abusive marriage for over 17 years.
The 'Pambazuka' hitmaker was married to Bishop William Mwangangi until the two filed for divorce in 2013.
Joan initiated the case at a Nairobi court, where she sought orders of separation. Mwangangi filed a cross-petition, asking the court to dissolve the marriage. The couple got married in 1996 in church.
Speaking in a detailed YouTube interview, Joan says she remained in the abusive marriage for fear of how people would judge her because she was a public figure.
"For the sake of all people who know you as a role model, the congregation, it was difficult for me to walk out. I would smile and pretend it was all okay, but I was not because he did all wrongs to me," she said.
"He was cheating with church ladies, beating me and many times he threatened to kill me."
Joan says by the first five years, she already knew she was in for big trouble, but she was determined to make it work and keep her family and marriage.
