Monie Karungi’s cryptic Facebook post
Brian Egwalu told TUKO.co.ke that the young entrepreneur had earned admiration as a hardworking single mother whose warm personality routinely drew in customers and viewers.
According to those close to the family, the circumstances surrounding the tragedy are still under investigation, and authorities are yet to release full details.
What has shaken many even more is a cryptic Facebook post she shared on August 14, accompanied by a black-and-white photo of herself. She captioned it:
“Mpozi, what’s in Heaven! I’m almost there.” At the time, it appeared to be just another reflective message, one that few interpreted as a possible sign of deeper struggles.
Lessons from Monie Karungi’s death
Everything changed when she was recently found dead at her home alongside her two young boys, a case that has drawn sympathy across social media.
Just days before her passing, the mother of two had shared photos of her children, decorated simply with love hearts.
The tragedy has sparked conversations about the importance of checking in on loved ones, especially when their posts or behaviour seem unusual.
Many expressed heartbreak, not only at the loss of a mother and her children, but also at the thought that her social media activity may have been a plea for help that went unnoticed.

Social media reactions
Essie Mbabazi:
“I didn’t know her but I feel bad. Her heart was bleeding but nobody knew. Maybe she needed a shoulder to lean on.”
Atwine Maria Doreen:
“Sometimes we should take captions seriously. People go through a lot and we don’t look deeper to check on them. Rest well Monie and the little ones.”
Brenda Kyalisiima Ateenyi:
“When she posted, didn’t her friends at least ask what the matter was? She communicated and she was ignored. Now we are typing RIP.”
As investigations continue, many are remembering Karungi as a devoted mother, a talented entrepreneur, and a woman whose online presence touched more people than she ever realised.
Betty Bayo’s cryptic post about death
Elsewhere, gospel musician Betty Bayo’s cryptic post about death just weeks before her demise left her fans wondering whether she was having a premonition.
On October 19, the Eleventh Hour hitmaker shared a post indicating that people had good things to say about someone only when they die.
The mother of two had often requested her fans to pray against premature death, only to die while receiving treatment at Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH).
