Gospel Singer Ruth Matete Cleared in Husband’s Death Case
Gospel singer Ruth Matete has shared a sense of relief after revealing that the court case surrounding the death of her late husband, Beloved John Apewajoye, has been resolved.
She made this announcement on her social media accounts, mentioning that the hearing took place on April 25.
“A few days ago, the court case that has been hanging over my head was finally concluded. The hearing was on April 25, 2024, and I was declared free. The case is over. The file is closed. To the glory of God! I got back the gas cylinder and the three telephones. I will continue to serve God. I will continue to do what He created me to do. I certainly don’t look like what I went through. It’s all for the glory of God,” she wrote.
Matete opened up about the emotional burden she faced after her husband’s untimely death.
Apewajoye passed away from injuries he received in a fire at their home in Athi River, Machakos County, on March 30, 2020.
The couple, who had been married for four months and were anticipating their first child, encountered significant challenges in the aftermath of the accident.

“I should write a very long post. By now you know I can write long posts. But I realized that would mean writing down everything that has happened in the last four years. Then I changed my mind. So here I am, trying to keep it as short as possible. It’s been four years. Life has gone on somehow, but there was one thing left to do… I got married. My husband died four months after we got married,” Matete explained.
Apewajoye’s death triggered a series of challenges for Matete.
She said she was blamed for his death, had to endure widespread rumors, and faced obstacles in burying him because of legal proceedings.
“I was not allowed to bury him for three months. Things were taken from me as evidence. Three telephones and two gas cylinders. The small one that caused the accident and the big one that was working. The small one was later confiscated. Later I got my baby and tried to carry on. I continued to serve God”.
She expressed her gratitude for the support she has received from her family and friends throughout the ordeal.
“Thank you all for your prayers and encouragement. A big thank you to my father for standing by me through all this. A special thank you to my spiritual father, Prophet David Owusu, for his prayers and more importantly, his protection. Thank you, Papa. It’s over. It’s over. It’s over. This is my testimony,” she said.
