Others said that the revered singer also tried stripping and asked for a knife so that she could take her own life. Tanzanian actress Esha Behati who witnessed the whole situation said that she had gone to look for some chips before someone alerted them that Ray-C was on the streets acting crazy and threatening to strip.

Buheti then rushed outside and gave her account of the story on Instagram. “Ray C said that she needed to be shielded from some people who wanted to kidnap her. People then held her to prevent her from hurting herself but she was very strong and started talking incoherently. She then started looking for a knife to stab herself and she was restrained by members of the crowd.

After people stopped her from stabbing herself, she threw herself on the ground and stared rolling in the mud and screaming. I broke into tears.” Buheti revealed in an emotional post

“A police car came and took her away with difficulty because she kept fighting off the police and when they managed to get her into the car, she kept shouting “Natekwa!” (I’m being kidnapped).” The Tanzanian actress wrote before urging her fellow Tanzanians to help RayC.

Thankfully, Ray-C has received some help and is currently admitted at the Rehab, Life and Hope Rehabilitation Centre, in Bagamoyo, Dar es Salaam.

Speaking to Mwanaspoti, one of the Rehab Center Directors Karim Banji said “Yes it’s true we received Ray C but I honestly can’t comment on her state because it’s too early to say anything vivid about her state.”
