Gospel Singer Ringtone Apoko and Politician Cassypool in Brawl
Popular gospel singer Ringtone Apoko and politician Casypool were involved in a brawl in Kahawa West, Nairobi county on Tuesday evening.
The video of the brawl was shared on social media by 2mbili, and it shows Ringtone getting out of his car and angrily going to attack Cassypool while he was chatting with the comedian YY.
In the video, Ringtone is seen taking off his shirt and clenching his fists to hit the politician while accusing him of ruining his name.
“I am an orphan, you are ruining my name. I live in Wanyee?? I am an orphan, you cannot ruin my name? I live in Wanyee??”
Ringtone was heard shouting at Casypool as YY tried to separate them. The gospel singer accused Cassypool of spreading rumors that he was being kept by a white woman.
In his defense, Ringtone denied the allegations and made it clear that he personally struggled to finance his luxurious life in Runda.
The brawl was eventually broken up by bystanders, and both men were taken away by police. It is unclear what charges, if any, will be filed against them.
The brawl between Ringtone and Cassypool is the latest in a series of high-profile incidents involving Kenyan celebrities. In recent months, there have been several reports of violence and threats between celebrities, including musicians, comedians, and politicians.
This trend is worrying, and it raises questions about the state of celebrity culture in Kenya. It is important for celebrities to set a good example and to behave in a way that is respectful of others.
