Elseba Kokeyo, popularly known as Cebbie Koks and sister to renowned musician Akothee, has expressed her frustration with media intrusion into her personal life amidst alleged break-up speculations.

Cebbie and lawyer Steve Ogolla had a grand traditional wedding ceremony in December 2022, capturing the attention of many.

However, earlier this year, rumors began swirling when keen-eyed fans noticed Cebbie had removed all traces of their wedding from her social media profiles.

This included unfollowing her husband and reverting her name from ‘Mrs. Ogolla’ to ‘Elseba Awuor Kokeyo’.

While initially tight-lipped about the matter, Cebbie has now spoken out against media interference, asserting her right to privacy.

In an interview with YouTuber Jagero, she criticized the media’s fixation on trivial matters rather than highlighting her entrepreneurial endeavors.

"People are petty, and I’d say media is petty. I have a business on the same context, why are they not amplifying that? Why are we looking at things that don’t really matter?" questioned Cebbie.

"Like does it really matter that I changed my name or I deleted photos? We are more inclined to the negative than the positive. People need to find a life."

Expressing concern over the toll media scrutiny can take on celebrities, Cebbie highlighted the risk of depression stemming from the constant need to explain oneself to the public.

Since the rumors emerged, both Cebbie and Steve Ogolla have chosen to keep a low profile, neither confirming nor denying the alleged break-up.

In a separate interview with Lynne Ngugi, Cebbie reflected on the challenges of navigating a public marriage.

"Social media is not a safe space for everyone and it can also reveal the ugly edge in your marriage," she shared.

"Given a chance, I would keep it private because people look out for the bad things that can happen and make it a subject of discussion."
