Kathy Kiuna’s Son Narrates How He Attempted Suicide Twice

Jeremy Kiuna, son of outspoken Nairobi preacher, Reverend Kathy Kiuna, disclosed how he almost committed suicide twice, when he relocated to America for further studies.

The 18-year-old recently narrated his painful struggles in her mother’s show, Women Without Limits.

I had tried to commit suicide twice. One day I called my dad (Bishop Allan Kiuna) and decided to talk to him about what I was going through. I then spoke with my mum and when I told her that I had tried committing suicide, she screamed,” Jeremy emotionally narrated as his mother broke into tears.

According to Jeremy, it took him a long time to fit in the US-based school, which he had been enrolled in, as he was often isolated from the rest of the students in the school.

The isolation turned into depression, which forced him to contemplate committing suicide.

The endeared reverend revealed that the phone call scared her.

“That call from my son that he had wanted to commit suicide, is a call no parent should receive. I screamed and wondered how that could be happening to a boy. I had raised in so much love, a boy who was so confident,” Kiuna cried.

Jeremy further detailed that he used to take his meals alone, before going back to class. His first school was dominated by white students and the teenager as withdrawn for weeks, before interacting with anyone.

I was later transferred to Manchester High School, which is largely dominated by black students, and for the first time, I felt at home,” Jeremy stated.

Jeremy graduated from high school in the UK, receiving a standing ovation from the crowd, as he picked his certificate.
