She is AMAZING! Indeed she is strong and confident. She has a message to share with the world 💪🏽💃🏽❤️❤️
She's extremely brave and highly intelligent beyond her age
This is an extremely intelligent gal.....it takes the glory and grace to have reached this far
Latif, the GOAT including the rest of the panelists, your professionalism is top notch in handling this sensitive topic
A leader at machakos university She is brave
She is eloquent and has a good knowledge about her condition.
I hope similar conversations are given prime time coverage in major media houses in Kenya. We need it
OMG so glad they didn't do surgery on Mercy. They would have caused her a lot of damage and probably life long pain.
Courageous, very informed and authentic Mercy. A very enlightening conversation for a COUNSELLING Psychologist.
Where are the likes for her mother, more than a mother!

Mercy you are a smart lady your argument and conversation is full of facts, move out of machakos and speak out, we were all born not only to live but to leave a legacy baby girl live long leave legacy, I admire you mrembo you're bold and bright
The strength, courage and bravery with Mercy is exceptional. Live life and conquer it.
I want to commend Mercy. I am now understanding a new concept for the first time in my life. Thank you Mercy.

I admire this individual. This interview was very informative and inspiring
A delicate discussion handled as it deserves by experienced hosts. Well done.
Eric and your team. You handled this subject like the professionals you are. Very enlightening.
Such a lovely and vibrant lady full of energy, and thanks to spice fm for giving her the platform to educate us about these rare occurrences
This girl know who she is.
I love the courage this individual has,God bless you
my interpretation of the proverb is "Death is certain" means that inevitably we will die and while we know that it will happen it does not mean that we go to the grave and wait for death we keep busy living life etc

Totally agreed, l interpreted that way too
Philosophy has it that a "thing" is or is not. Such information gives me opportunity to make a critical thinking that beautiful soul like mercy have opened the philosophical thought to analyse life. The essence of being is so deep not being a man and woman, but soul and body, self motivation to achieve life dreams.
So brave, focused, articulate. May God give you strength and wisdom for journey ahead.
It has been wonderful listening to your testimony Mercy on issues of Intersex. I have learned something. May God bless you.
OMG! such an enlightening episode. I appreciate you Mocina for your bravery and your vision. I support you 100%. The society is the one that is broken and sick, it desperately need healing through education and creating awarenes. So important to bring the marginalized people in the open, there is so much diversity of sexes and abilities just as we have diversity of colors. Not mere black and white, not binary. Let the marginalized people speak. Its a privilege to be in the audience and hear your wonderful story. 💌
Great courage mercy be blessed
She is phenomenal, go girl, you are destined for greatness
A lot of advocacy is needed because we might have many people being stigmatised. Mercy keeps soaring higher and higher. Inclusion is key
She is so pretty
I'm so touched and I learnt a lot. Mercy. Your brave and may God keep you shinning in your life.
This is an awesome interview that opens new frontiers of knowledge. Mercy is an intelligent spokesperson for many we never hear of. Articulate and very admirable. She will go places.
I love the way she sticks to her happiness
Wonderful human being. Very clear as well.
I love her courage. God has set aside her work for her. Mercy is special. May God bless her.
she is an amazing soul to the core
Such a wonderful conversation. Thank you!
You are a bright girl. Fearfully and wonderfully made of the image of God .Go girl
Informative indeed Mercy articulate , brave , focused and inspiring
Bold conversation. The situation room asking all the questions that i would be afraid to ask myself
Self Acceptance keeps her Goin
A beautiful person, a peaceful soul,an open heart,a sharp mind,an eloquent tongue..thats mercy.
This is quite informative and brave while at it. I concur that Intersex should not be bundled together with the other LGBTQ grouping because while the former is a misnoma of genetics, the latter is a matter of choice. What a wonderful soul (and at this young age) removing ignorance from many of us. May God bless you Monica

Wrong, if people can be born without the appropriate genitalia because of dysfunctional genetics (hardware), it follows that the same genetics can interfere with an individual sexuality mentally (software). All living things are afflicted with all manner of deformities but the sexual one is the most sensitive. Education is the only way to end the stigma of the LGBTQ people including the intersex, they're all creation of God, in his image.

Hi Mercy. You are our Kenyan child and a child of the universe. Live your life free, happy and healthy. Good and mature interview Spice👍🏾
Girl, you are beautiful and very confident. I wish you well, God bless you.
Great host
Her mind is beautiful ❤
Best interview i have listened to recently. Well articulated, great questions and a brilliant young person who understands what she wants and genuinely wants to help others in a similar situation. Proud of you Monicah and hands down lots of respect for your mother who has brought up a confident young woman ready to take on the world
That youngster has done well on this interview excellent one of the best interviews at spice FM - great awareness of the condition as an intersex person kudos 👏🏿
This is very informative.
Mercy for president!❤
The best interview ever❤ Mercy keep bringing the awareness in cause majority are suffering Weldone guy's this is what been missing in our community
Mercy, you are brave, beautiful, and confident. Proud of you. Keeping walking.
The courage is on another level Kip on gal Love u for free
Keep it up Mercy.
i like how she approached her situation. but if you listen carefully the love from home was sufficient so parents take note have your kids back even if you don't know what they are going through.
Very courageous lady May God guide you
We need more sensitization on this especially so that Kenyans can be more supportive to intersex people. It must be so challenging to be intersex. Monica is a very talented and smart person!

The reason for LGBTQ was to hide such people but since we think LGBTQ is about men who are marrying each other which is rare,most of them are intersex
Mercy, this is great! Iam proud of you. Keep it up girl.
Mercy you have explain very well i have learn a lot.
Great idea. Opening an office to assist intersex address their legal documentation. Awesome suggestion.
Metheu thank you much very intellectual and very knowledgeable.
Amazing Mercy
Such an amazing soul. God bless you always.
Wonderful conversation
Monicah Mercy knows what she is saying. Great conversation. Andũ maĩle ũnenaa ũu na ndaĩya na kweleanwa.
Beautiful conversation ❤❤❤❤
This is a very hot topic to talk about and we appreciate the fact that miss Mercy was able to come out to the show and discuss it. It takes a special individual to be able to accept things and communicate to people in a rather very taboo topic in our society.Thank you for highlighting this information and I appreciate the spice FM crew for doing this.All the relevant questions were asked.in my opinion.
I love your courage darling..go go go
Dr. Denis congratulation for the information to us. God bless.
I love this gal she is a leader,,,,,you educate us.
She rocks !!!❤
Am Denis watching from Uganda,thanks for sharing the Experience MM.❤❤❤
What a brave gal, sometimes it's not good to judge people from their looks, our society needs to be enlightened about intersex and transgender people.
