And the duo has never confirmed these reports though they have been seen looking like more than friends on various occasions.

Even when Ali Kiba came to headline the 9th Edition of Koroga Festival at the Arboretum Gardens, they walked in hand in hand.

Earlier on, Jokate came out to reveal that they just support each other musically nothing more, before adding that she greatly admires how cool and collected he is.

Now Ali Kiba has defined his relationship with Jokate and his mum has also talked about his alleged relationship with the Kidoti C.E.O.

Rachel Ruto is no stranger to making bold yet elegant fashion statements, but during the state visit of the Dutch royals on March 18, 2025, it wasn’t just her outfit that stood out—it was her shoes. The Kenyan First Lady stepped out in a pair of brown suede block heels adorned with a gold emblem.

Speaking to the media during his MTV EMA award party, Kiba said “Jokate ni mgeni mwalikwa kama wengine…ni rafiki yangu. (Jokate is an invited guest to the party and she is also my friend.)

Ali Kiba’s mum also revealed that she doesn’t know of his relationship with Jokate, she just knows of his relationship with another lady who she was officially introduced to.

"Hajanitambulisha huyo ni rafiki wake na hiyo si tabia nimemfundisha.”She said. (He has not introduced Jokate as his girlfriend and that kind of behaviour is not something I’ve taught him).

Ali Kiba’s denial of his relationship with Kidoti comes a few days after she posted this cryptic message at Ali Kiba’s party:

Unapotumia sio nguvu bali akili nyingi kumtengenezamtu na akafikia mafanikio fulani hivi halafu ki-mtu kingine kikajiweka mbele na kutaka credit zote , una smile kama hivi ukiacha waendelee huku ukitafakari maneno kwenye vitabu vitakatifu wa kwanza atakuwa wa mwisho na mwisho atakuwa wa kwanza. Maisha ni mzunguko. Mungu yu mwema sana. (: When you put in effort to help someone get to the top then someone else comes and takes credit for your efforts you just smile and leave them alone as you think about what is written in religious books. The first will be last and the last shall be the first, everything comes back full circle, God is good)
