Tanzanian influencer Mwijaku has found himself at the centre of a social media storm after being exposed by outspoken activist Mange Kimambi. According to Mange, Mwijaku—who is married and has a child—has been secretly dating a university student named Mary from Sinza. The affair took a dark turn when Mwijaku reportedly slept with Mary’s friend.
Upon discovering the betrayal, Mary allegedly called two other friends, and together they confronted the woman involved. The confrontation quickly escalated into violence. Reports claim the group beat the girl, cut her hair, applied chemicals to parts of it, and even forced her to undress in a humiliating act that has shocked the nation.
The disturbing incident has drawn widespread condemnation from the public, with many calling on authorities to take immediate legal action. In the aftermath, Mary has deactivated her Instagram account, sparking even more speculation and backlash online.
In a significant development, the Tanzanian Minister for Community Development, Gender, Women, and Special Groups has spoken out, strongly condemning the attack. The minister has reached out to the assaulted young woman and confirmed that an investigation is currently underway.
As the nation watches closely, the story continues to raise urgent questions around gender-based violence, influencer accountability, and the power of social media in bringing hidden truths to light.
