Speaking about his current life status in an interview with theoriginalpadre254, Wakimani said,

I have been going through depression for the last three years and it hasn't been an easy road for me. When I was going through depression it all started at Churchill Show and today I want to let it go from my heart so that I can grow.

He continued,

While on Churchill Show at some point I felt that we were falling out coz of one or two things. First, I was called at 2 am and told to go for a show in Nakuru. When I got there, the creative director (Victor Ber) ASKED ME "UMECOME KUFANYA nini hapa na tumetoka na wasanii Nairobi?"

Wakimani revealed that during that time he was going through depression after the accident which left Ayeiya dead.

'...I got depressed and used to drink a lot and I was drowning every day to the level that no one could understand me...I was trying to pick myself up and move on but those guys [at Churchill Show] were not understanding what I was doing with my life.
