End Of The Show? Eric Omondi Apologizes Over ‘Dirty Wife Material’ Content After His Release
Eric Omondi’s controversial Wife Material Show season two has been filled with drama since it premiered days ago. Matters got worse when the contestants started fighting in a meet and greet party set up by Eric. The ordeal captured too much attention, which saw Eric Omondi arrested.
It’s clear that Kenya Film Classification Board CEO Ezekiel Mutua is always on the neck of the comedian. This time, he accused Eric of producing un-authorized content without the license of KFCB. Less than 24 hours later, Eric has been released on 50K police bond. The President of Comedy Africa has now apologized over the content in his show.
On his page, he wrote,
”I have had a very long phone call with my very good friend Daktari Ezekiel Mutua and he is of the very strong opinion that #WifeMaterial does not have to be dirty to sell. I completely agree with him and I have sent him a personal apology. The intention has always been to entertain and not to offend and I’d like to apologise to anyone who was offended????????????The whole idea behind #WifeMaterial is to bring East Africa and Africa together through Entertainment…The Vision is to take over Africa and the Dream is to lift the East African and Kenyan flags to the World and that requires a rigorous and vigorous creative process. In order to compete Internationally we need to put our best feet forward. The creative process can be long and tedious and whenever a new idea is born it comes with a lot of teething problems. WE PROMISE TO BE BETTER AND DO BETTER????????????????????????????????????????????????
SIGNED
PRESIDENT OF ENTERTAINMENT AFRICA.”
It’s still not clear whether he will proceed with the show or not.
