However, Muchiri took to his Twitter handle to apologize to the violinist stating that anger made him react that way.

“I personally apologized to Miss Wanjiru Maina for what I said. I will say it also in a public forum. It was stupid of me & in bad taste. A few seconds of anger made me say what I said. I know I can’t take it back but I asked her for forgiveness & she thankfully accepted. I have no excuse for what I said. I am not perfect nor claim to be. We all screw up sometimes it’s life. Haya maisha Sasa iendelee” Reads Joe Muchiri’s Tweet
