Mother to popular artist Trio Mio has refuted claims that her son got a D in the just released 2022 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) results.
In a statement dated Friday, January 20, Irma Sofia expressed that many would be disappointed with the rumours about her son.
She stated that the renowned artist had excelled in the examination released by Cabinet Secretary Ezekiel Machogu.
However, she did not indicate the artist's grade, playing cagey with his fans.
"I won't breathe because KCSE results have been announced? Relax.
"The boy did his best and am very proud of him. And those speculating a D. I am sorry!" read the statement in part.
Consequently, after releasing the statement the artist shared the same on his social media platforms.
Sofia was responding after claims that the artist had scored Grade D emerged on social media.
The reports saw the artist trend on social media as a section of Kenyans also called out those who were teasing the candidate.
"In a few years' time, Trio Mio will employ top A students as his managers. Soon!," Chris Kirwa commented.
On the other hand, other claims that Trio Mio scored Grade A also emerged amidst the online trolls.
Machogu released 2022 KCSE results on Friday, January 20 ahead of the school reopening on Monday, January 23.
