Actually, this helped quite a bit, first of all, I tried running sh -x ~/.wmii-hg/wmiirc and realized that the issue only happens when I am using
dash, so sh behaved as expected, so if i change the #!/bin/dash -f in wmiirc to #!/bin/sh, the problem goes away!

When I did run ‘wmiir xwrite /client/sel/ctl kill’ from a dash instance of wmiirc, it quits execution
Just in case you might know what was causing it based on this information,
this is the end of the output of
dash -x ~/.wmii-hg/wmiirc

Thanks a lot for the help
