The 73-year-old Malawian amapiano artist Jetu has  issued a public apology for using abusive language.

This incident has gained attention given Jetu’s prominence in the music scene, particularly for her recent hit “Chakwaza.”

Jetu, whose real name is Christina Malaya, has been a significant figure in the Malawian entertainment industry, initially gaining fame through comedy and later transitioning to music after the death of her husband in 2019.
