- Limited opportunities: Butita described being confined to the “Churchill Raw” segment despite consistent strong performances. He attributed this to decisions by unnamed individuals, suggesting potential gatekeeping within the show’s structure.
- Lack of support: Butita also mentioned experiencing negativity and a lack of support from certain members of the team, implying a less than ideal backstage environment for some.
Butita shared his insights on Churchill show;
“I will forgive them for everything but i will forgive them for everything but one ntadisagree na watu ni vile watu fulani wanagate keep iyo space mpaka mtu unaogopa kuwa mnoma. Infact mimi ni victim wa kuteseka juu najua kufanya kitu,” he said.
