Claudia Naisabwa Shares How Butita Shielded Her from Predatory Advances

Posted on by Ozymandias

MC and presenter Claudia Naisabwa has expressed heartfelt gratitude to her former boss, comedian Eddie Butita, for shielding her from predatory advances by male celebrities and industry figures during her early days in Kenya’s entertainment scene.

Claudia revealed that she was just 19 and still a student when she landed her first presenter role at SPM Buzz, an entertainment platform owned by Butita. At the time, she admits she was inexperienced and unfamiliar with the dynamics of the industry. However, Butita provided invaluable mentorship and guidance, particularly regarding her interactions within the entertainment space.

She credits Butita’s support for helping her avoid falling victim to predatory behaviors. “There are a lot of challenges in the entertainment industry, especially for young girls like me. There is the good and the bad, and I can assure you there are wicked people everywhere. Some people in the industry have tried to hinder my growth and success,” the 22-year-old shared.

Claudia also emphasized that amidst the challenges, there are genuine individuals who offer protection and guidance, with Butita being one of them. “Butita has protected me from so much. He became not just a boss but also a great mentor and friend. Whenever someone made a pass at me, I’d confide in him, and he would advise me about that person. He helped me see beyond appearances because, oftentimes, people aren’t who they seem to be,” she explained.

Reflecting on her early experiences, Claudia noted how much she valued Butita’s advice. “At 19, I was naive. I only knew these people from social media and admired their content, but I didn’t know them beyond what they presented. Butita, having been in the industry for years, understood these individuals at a deeper level as a seasoned mainstream artist.”

What stood out most to her was Butita’s non-intrusive approach to guidance. “He protected me and guided me on what was right and wrong but always left the decisions to me. Even today, if someone approaches me or I’m dating someone, Butita knows. He keeps all my secrets—he’s someone I can trust completely.”

“Men, you’re not leaving us any options. Almost every woman is either a baby mama or someone is a baby daddy. Out of 10 women, 6 have kids, 2 are pregnant, and the remaining 2 are making announcements. Is this in the constitution? Did we unknowingly pass it? By next year, anyone over 25 without kids will be a rarity,” Butita joked.

In 2023, Butita denied rumors of dating model Sadia.
“People saw us together and just assumed we were dating, but no one asked for the truth,” he clarified.

He also addressed claims by actress Jacky Vike, who alleged that Butita was married with children living upcountry.
“Butita has a wife and kids in the village. That’s something he told me,” Jacky revealed.

When asked why she believed Butita was hiding this information, Jacky said she didn’t know and suggested asking him directly. “Men are complicated,” she added.

Jacky’s statement came after Butita was rumored to be dating Sadia, following their helicopter ride together for an event. However, the rumors fizzled out after Sadia was linked to another man.

When contacted about Jacky’s allegations, Butita dismissed them humorously. “She’s ruining my chances in the dating market,” he said, firmly denying the claims.

Fans had mixed reactions to Butita’s remarks:

  • @naiwear_men: “Relax, maybe it’s time to review your criteria.”
  • @tonniempole: “Why the rush? You’re still young.”
  • @shiks_ritty: “Where is he searching? There are plenty of us here.”
  • @lilmissel.: “Just don’t have a child outside and expect someone without kids to date you.”
  • @kidooh254: “Sounds like you’re meeting single moms. Try Roysambu.”
  • @2mbili: “It’s never too late, bro!”

In a September interview with Oga Obinna, Butita shared that he was single and carefully considering potential partners.
“I’m not in a rush to settle down. I’ve received plenty of interest, but I’m taking my time to see if they meet my standards,” he said.

American stand-up comedian Dave Chappelle performed in Kenya this May, captivating a sold-out audience at the Louis Leaky Auditorium. However, Kenyan comedian, actor, scriptwriter, and entrepreneur Eddie Butita recently disclosed that he was barred from attending the event, even though he had purchased a ticket.

In a video shared by SPM Buzz, Butita stated, “You know I was banned from getting into that show. I was banned.”

He explained that he had just returned from a tour in the U.S. with President Ruto when he was contacted by the event organizers, who informed him that he would not be permitted to attend.

“I had already bought my ticket. But a day before the show, the organizers called me and said, ‘We’re sorry, but you’ve been banned from attending.’ They mentioned that comedians and anyone affiliated with the media were not allowed at the show. Maybe they thought we might copy his jokes,” Butita speculated.

Posted on by Ozymandias

Kenyan creative Eddie Butita has addressed the backlash he received from Kenyans on Twitter (KOT) following his interview with President William Ruto.

Criticism arose after a photo surfaced showing Butita alongside other journalists in an interview setup with the President. The photos were released shortly after President Ruto’s viral interview with Linus Kaikai, Eric Latiff, and Joe Ageyo.

Butita took to his Twitter account to respond:

“Now that many people are sending me this, let me address it. This is an interview just like the rest. These are different journalists from various digital media outlets. Is there a problem? Hakuna! You can’t bring down youths in the name of fighting for youths—double speak at its peak. SPM BUZZ was present, as well as Tuko, Kenyans, Uliza Link, among others. I see no issue with digital media entities conducting interviews just like mainstream outlets.”

The interview occurred a few weeks after Butita accompanied President William Ruto and his team on a trip to the US.

Over the weekend, Butita sparked controversy on social media platform X for his ambiguous stance on the Finance Bill 2024, leading to speculation about his government affiliations.

CHECK OUT:

Amerix’s provocative post directly addressed Butita: “BUTITA, I am talking to you. The future of your creative works is in your audience. Listen to your audience. Don’t explain. Go to YouTube and create a 10-minute promo that rejects the Finance Bill. That is what artists do. I am not begging you. CHANGE or PERISH.”

This pressure prompted Butita to respond, eventually rejecting the finance bill amid intense scrutiny. His friends, Abel Mutua and Njugush, humorously came to his defense, leaving fans in stitches.

Abel Mutua declared, “On Tuesday, we will be one soldier heavier. Welcome to the streets @eddiebutita. Your mistake wasn’t joining the government. For change to happen, we need to influence from within. Delaying the rejection swayed the public, but we are good now. See you Tuesday.”

Meanwhile, Njugush took a lighter approach in his post: “1. This is a warning to @eddiebutita to never shave again!!!!!!! 2. I know guys with huge media and social influence have been shying away from political-related issues (mostly informed by the audience)… However, issues touching on people’s lives have since stopped being political, and everyone should be able to pronounce themselves for a better nation. So with that said Butita Tuesday kuja na maji na duster na nini ingine nimesahau?”

 

Fans reacted with a range of comments:

“Huyu kitu anajua kufanya kwa hii maisha ni clout” – Eddie Butita tells Rigathi Gachagua about Bahati’s clout-chasing tendencies.

On June 3, Kenyan singer Bahati puzzled fans, friends, and fellow celebrities by posting an old photo of his wife, Diana Marua, with football player Victor Wanyama, accompanied by a heartbreak emoji.

With no further explanation from Bahati, speculation about the state of his marriage began to swirl.

The situation intensified as reports surfaced that Bahati and Diana had unfollowed each other and removed their photos on Instagram.

This fueled further speculation about a potential breakup.

However, it turns out the Bahatis were just being their usual selves, engaging in a clout-chasing stunt to draw attention to their new reality show, ‘The Bahatis Empire’.

This isn’t the first time the couple has fooled fans into believing they had broken up. They’ve used similar tactics before to create buzz and attract attention.

Comedian Eddie Butita, who attended ‘The Bahatis Empire’ launch event on June 6, humorously roasted the couple for their clout-chasing antics.

He congratulated them before inviting the Deputy President to hear some secrets about Bahati and his music journey.

“I am so happy to be here at ‘The Bahatis Empire’ launch,” Butita began. “But allow me to roast Bahati and Diana. Deputy President, let me share with you some secrets about our good artist Bahati. He used to cry in 2012. He used to write letters because he was struggling financially.”

According to Butita, Bahati shifted to secular music as soon as he started earning more money.

“Wacha ashike pesa kidogo, Adhiambo. So now huyu kitu anajua kufanya kwa hii maisha ni kitu inaitwa clout. Okay, clout ni kiki. Clout means waking up today and saying you’ve broken up with your wife, and then on Friday, you release a new song,” he said.

Butita further explained, “Clout is waking up today and saying something to trend, then tomorrow you release something new. Clout is saying on Friday at 10 AM, Bahati featuring Satan for new Gospel… Clout is refusing to take your wife to the National Park because there are animals.”

Eddie Butita entertained the audience, who laughed at his jokes about Bahati’s life and journey.

His humorous take on Bahati’s clout-chasing tactics added a light-hearted touch to the launch event of ‘The Bahatis Empire’.

‘Who doesn’t make mistakes?’ Butita reflects on Miss Mandi’s past ridicule

Posted on by Ozymandias

Comedian Eddie Butita has revisited his fallout with former radio presenter and content creator Miss Mandi, who previously ridiculed his comedy.

Butita’s recent trip to the US, where he accompanied President William Ruto on a tour of filmmaker Tyler Perry’s studios, sparked social media discussions. Users unearthed a past tweet from Miss Mandi mocking his comedy, stating she didn’t find him funny and doubting his chances of landing a radio job, a position he greatly desired at the time.

“It was up to her to turn me down, and the public should let this one go, even though it keeps coming up. I think Miss Mandi had a right to say what she said, we are all human beings, we have choices and that was hers. The only question was how she went about it, she probably could have been a bit nicer without necessarily being ridiculous. It was wrong, but then again, who doesn’t make mistakes?” Butita told Nairobi News.

An email exchange from 11 years ago revealed that Miss Mandi not only declined Butita’s request to be her radio co-host but also mocked his creativity. At that time, Butita was just starting his comedy career.

Fast forward to 2024, and Butita has risen to become one of President Ruto’s favored creatives. His connection with the president, which began last year, has seen him involved in several government creative projects.

The highlight of his career was spending time with the head of state during the US trip. While many have praised Butita, the founder of Stage Presence Media Buzz (SPM BUZZ), for his transformation from a stand-up comedian to a presidential favorite, others are left wondering what became of Miss Mandi.

Butita considering selling his Jaguar XE due to allegations from his sugar mommy

Posted on by Ozymandias

Comedian Eddie Butita has once again addressed doubts surrounding his ownership of his Sh5 million Jaguar XE, which he acquired last year as an upgrade from his Nissan Tilda, purchased for Sh850,000.

When Butita initially showcased his new car on social media, rumors circulated suggesting it was not his own, with some speculating it belonged to an older woman, colloquially referred to as a “cougar.”

Expressing frustration over the persistent skepticism, Butita remarked, “At some point, I think I will just have to sell this car. Why don’t people believe in this craft that we’re doing? I have done so many things, so many great creative projects. Even the president once said that I make more money than his basic salary. Does that mean that with all that I do, I can’t just work hard and make enough money to get a good car? Why should I have to depend on a sugar mummy to get me a car? I just don’t understand the argument.”

Following his breakup with comedian Mamitto, Butita has been linked romantically to several women, including the alleged anonymous sugar mummy. However, he has consistently refuted these claims, dismissing them as products of social media speculation.

Since gaining prominence through the Churchill Comedy Show, Butita has embarked on a journey of self-reinvention, seizing various creative opportunities, such as screenwriting, which have proven lucrative for him. Nonetheless, he has encountered challenges along the way, including navigating gatekeepers within the Churchill Show platform, which he described as “a living hell” due to their resistance to his success.

Sadia Confirms She’s In A Relationship With Eddie Butita, Says They’re In Love With Each Other

Posted on by Dennis Elnino
Reports alleging that SPM boss Eddie Butita and Sadia have been dating have now been confirmed by the content creator. Rumours about the pair dating surfaced in 2023 and were catalyzed by a birthday message in which Said celebrated Butita who she hailed as “the most amazing human”, accompanying the same with heart emojis.
“Happy Birthday to the most amazing human. You have taught me a lot and I’m really grateful to be a part of you. I’m so proud of how far you’ve come. Cheers to many more laughs and beautiful moments,” read Said’s message.
This was among the reasons for speculating a relationship was cooking between them; not forgetting they went on a luxurious chopper ride together. To reciprocate, Eddie Butita also celebrated Sadia on Women’s day. Anyway, Sadia has now divulged that the two are actually in love and are now seeing each other. She revealed the same in a recent interview with Milele FM’s Ankali Ray, saying ‘ni mapenzi moto moto’.
‘Haijalishi tulianza lini kupendana. Bora tunapendana na tunaendelea,” she said
However, Sadia maintained that they have not yet moved in, but their love for each other is still on.

Butita addresses Wakimani’s assertions. Churchill gave them cars and $300,000

Posted on by Ozymandias

Eddie Butita clarified the narrative presented by Wakimani regarding Daniel Ndambuki, the founder of Churchill, allegedly gifting cars to comedians. In an interview with Oga Obinna, Butita explained that while they weren’t given cars, they were provided with loans to organize shows.

During a Creatives Meeting called by Churchill, Butita’s group, consisting of three individuals, was given 200K to create a show and return the funds once the show succeeded. However, their Mombasa show did not go as planned, leaving them with around Ksh 70,000, and they were unable to repay Churchill immediately. This led to tensions within the group, and one member mishandled the funds.

Later, Butita’s team had the opportunity to organize a show in Dubai, enabling them to repay the money owed to Churchill. This experience solidified a positive business relationship between Butita and Churchill, with an understanding that financial transactions could take place between them.

Butita noted that while Churchill is a good person, the environment at Churchill Show was somewhat toxic, with certain individuals creating an unfavorable atmosphere. According to Butita, there is no animosity between them, and Churchill remains a positive influence.

In a separate interview, Wa Kimani shared that Churchill provided financial assistance to comedians during a meeting. Churchill allegedly gave groups of three comedians sh300,000 each to organize and perform shows outside Nairobi. Some comedians who desired cars were directed to showrooms to select their vehicles, and according to Wa Kimani, some still use the cars provided by Churchill.

Eddie Butita Opens Up On Challenges Comedians Face On Churchill Show

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

In a recent interview with Oga Obinna, comedian and filmmaker Eddie Butita offered a candid perspective on his time on the popular platform “Churchill Show.” While acknowledging the show’s positive impact on launching careers, Butita also discussed challenges faced by comedians, including:

  • 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.

Butita’s experiences paint a complex picture of the show’s influence. While undeniably serving as a stepping stone for many, his story highlights the potential need for greater transparency, fairness, and support within the industry.

Despite these challenges, Butita continues to thrive, recently launching season two of his self-produced show “A Nurse Toto.”

‘Butita Has Children & A Wife Hidden In His Rural Home’- Actress Jacky Vike

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Comedian Eddie Butita has been exposed by his fellow jester and actress Jacky Vike, also known  as Awinja. The actress, during a recent interview with SPM Buzz, made a shocking revelation about Eddie Butita; which is quite intriguing since the jester has kept his relationship(s) private for a long time.

As we all know, Butita is an epitome of true hardwork; and he has shown it over the years. Despite having built an empire for himself, Butita has never disclosed anything about having a family or divulged about the love of his life.

But Jacky claims that Butita already has a wife & children; whom he has been hiding at his rural home for a while.

‘Butita akona bibi na watoto ushago. Hio ni kitu alinishow.”

When asked why she thinks Butita is keeping the information under wraps, Jacky responded;

”I don’t know. Unajua mambo ya wanaume ni ngumu.”

This comes after Eddie Butita was rumoured to be dating Sadia; whom they boarded a helicopter together while attending an event.

But the latter came to pass after Sadia was rumoured to be dating another man.

Comedian Eddie Butita has shared his cons of dating the President’s daughter Charlene Ruto to Daddy Owen. This comes after the two sparked rumours that they had something going on between them. They roped in netizens’ reaction on whether Daddy Owen is considering marriage once again despite undergoing a hefty heartbreak in his previous marriage.

Anyway, Eddie Butita has now shared why it’s risky for Daddy Owen to date the first daughter. He shared through a video on his Instagram;

”Daddy Owen you’re my friend. Wacha nikuambie. If you’re dating the first daughter, hio si dating, ni kazi. Ni kama kulipa ushuru. Unajua huyu hahitaji password kuona texts zako. Hawa kwao wakona DCI, NYS. ”

He continued to warn him that they’ll not have time to solve family issues. Instead, he will be controlled whenever things go south.

Daddy Owen, Charlene Relationship

Earlier this year, Daddy Owen set tongues wagging with unveiling of photos showcasing President William Ruto’s daughter, Charlene Ruto, visiting his mother in Kakamega. The nature of their relationship was shrouded in mystery, leaving Kenyans curious and eager for answers.

Despite widespread reports a few days ago about Charlene’s visit, Daddy Owen remained tight-lipped on the subject. However, on January 2, 2024, he finally shared several photos from Charlene’s visit to Eshieywe while reflecting on his 2023 highlights.

The two are supposedly good friends. But only time will tell if there’s more than just friendship between them.

Eddie Butita reveals he knew Starlet Wahu’s alleged murderer

Posted on by Ozymandias

Popular comedian Eddie Butita has acknowledged knowing John Matara, the prime suspect in the murder of Pastor Victor Kanyari’s sister, Starlet Wahu. Butita revealed this on his X page in response to a post by a user identifying Matara.

He commented on the post mentioning that he attended the same high school as Matara, acknowledging their past connection. This confirmation adds another layer to the ongoing investigation into the shocking murder.

“Haiyaaa @iamjoseh_ unakumbuka huyu jamaa Pale Butere Boys High School?” 

He even cheekily told one Kenyan he had a case to answer in his follow-up comments to the others who had engaged him.

“Hii kwa law tunasema you are an accessory to a crime, you reluctantly watched a criminal grow even going as far as kumchunia mandazi when njaa ilikuwa karibu kumaliza yeye, without raising your hands in class.. Am afraid you have a case to answer..”

Eddie refuted this by saying, “Ata mimi nimeona kwa whatsapp group.”

Following the shocking and horrific death of 24-year-old socialite and Instagram baddie Starlet Wahu, the Kenyan entertainment industry was plunged into mourning.

The aspiring socialite, who also happens to be the younger sister of famous preacher Pastor Kanyari, was allegedly killed by a man named John Matara following a tumultuous date in the South B neighborhood of Nairobi.

The curvy Starlet was spotted with Matara, who was dressed in brown khaki pants, a sleeved blue denim shirt, and brown shoes, according to CCTV evidence that the police provided.

Wahu, 24, completed the ensemble with a short denim coat and a crimson dress that she wore with black heels.

Eddie Butita Reflects On The Impact of President Ruto’s Endorsement

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Kenyan comedian Eddie Butita found himself in the spotlight in June when he received a surprising accolade from President William Ruto during the Kenya Drama Festivals Winners Gala at State House, Nairobi. The president singled out Butita and his comedy partner Njugush, praising their creative talent and entrepreneurial spirit, even suggesting that they might be earning more than his own salary of nearly KSh2 million.

In a recent interview with Dr. King’ori, Butita opened up about the profound impact that the president’s unexpected recognition has had on his life. He shared how this endorsement has not only boosted his career but has also influenced how he interacts with others.

“There is something psychological or subconscious about power,” Butita remarked. “When the president said I was successful, it changed a lot of dynamics in terms of business, how we relate with other people. Sometimes you get business because someone hopes one day you will mention their name to the president. There is something about power I am trying to understand, especially its effect because the president can be a very good influencer.”

Butita, known for his witty and lighthearted approach, jokingly suggested that the president should consider charging a fee for publicly endorsing businesses. While a lighthearted remark, it also reflects the significant influence that the president’s words can have on public perception and business opportunities.

Butita’s experience highlights the power of recognition and endorsement from influential figures. The president’s commendation has undoubtedly boosted Butita’s reputation and opened doors to new opportunities. It also serves as a testament to the success of Butita and Njugush as comedians and entrepreneurs, demonstrating their ability to not only entertain but also build a thriving business around their talent.

Due to his darkly attractive visage, Eddie Butita is pretty ecstatic that a prominent celebrity finds him attractive.

The key celebrity in question is the content producer Georgina Njenga, who revealed during a quick-fire interview with Flossytrukid that she finds Butita to be attractive.

When asked to list the top five most attractive males, Georgina became quite bashful.

“Does it have to be a TikToker or can I say Instagrammers??”

“Trukid and Butita”

Butita expressed his joy at finally being recognized for his nice looks in the comment area of her Instagram post.

“Hapana!! Madem msikue mnasema tu mnanipenda na inaishia hapo, nikuleni please.”

Like many other jesters including Eric Omondi, Chipukeezy, among others, Butita is also a fan of rocking new hairstyles- not very often, but he does enjoy having a new look after a while.

Celebrities have tapped into the new world of fashion and style and we wouldn’t be surprised if we have a person makes fashion out of something we never expected. Ragged jeans wasn’t seen as fashion when it pioneered, but people started embracing it and still lives on up to date.

Same thing applies to hairstyles. There are many styles that different people fancy. Some stick to the same hairstyle while others don’t mind changing over & over.

Eddie Butita has now opted to go for dreads. The jester took to his Instagram to floss the new look to his followers.

”New Look… it’s your boy Eddie Butita,” he captioned the photos.

The funnyman once rocked hair dyed in red and blue- leaving netizens flabbergasted about it-but eventually got used to it. It’s all about making your own fashion.

Kibe is not the nicest of men when it comes to passing a message and he decided to warn the comedian, YY that his wife might have cuckolded him with his friend and fellow comedian, Eddie Butita.

And though he was speaking on the rather uncanny similarity between Butita and YY’s newborn child, the way he went around it was rather jarring cos honestly, who openly blasts someone with such information on social media?

YY has finally responded to Kibe and he simply said no one should expect him to be triggered by what the latter said because he understands that it’s simply his way of generating content.

His approach is rather enlightened. he clearly has a great sense of humour and we wish all our celebrities would be like this. Afterall,, It was YY who put out his information first when he posted this piece of content:

Kibe however isn’t wrong when he tells YY to go for a paternity test because that is something we all need to do as men. In Kenya, 30 per cent of the men who do go for one find out that their children aren’t theirs biologically and they’ve been cuckolded into raising another man’s bastards.

5 Ways To Protect Yourself From Getting Mugged In The City

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Cases of assault in the city have become rampant recently. And it’s quite a scare for netizens as they cruise the petrifying city streets; some of which have been red-zoned. With netizens on high alert, there’s definitely a few ways you can employ to avoid being a statistic.

To begin with, avoid walking along lonely blind alleys. Most of them are a den that await anyone who seems to be lost. You’ll end up having nowhere to run/hide since most of them are just a cul de sac. Consider using open streets while going to your destination.

The most under-rated method number 2 is walking fast. Most of these hooligans will target someone who seems confused and he/she is walking slowly. Keep up the pace, walk it like you talk it!

Avoid Being Mugged - Live Safely

Thirdly, situational awareness. Most people are easily robbed in the city for not being aware of their own surrounding(s). While you walk, take a sneak peak of whose around you. Try to beware of anyone who is following you around surreptitiously.

The other obvious method to avoid getting mugged is to walk with friends/company. Tag a friend along after work; or while going to visit new places in the city. This will help you with manpower whenever thug(s) corner you.

Lastly, employ contextual dress-codes when necessary. If you look too fancy & lavish, you’ll be the centre of attraction for thieves. Of course they’re after money and goodies. And your outfit will determine whether they’ll come after you or not. Keep it simple!

Probably because of how it all started – with Vivian attacking Sosuun on social media assuming fans wouldn’t it figure this was all planned out. Maybe we can give them too credit for choosing to get personal with Zalia bwanako kwanza and umekaliwa na ma in laws you can’t even speak for yourself. Man…that was deep.

But again – Butita doesn’t agree with how they scripted the whole drama…not forgetting the staged video of the two fighting. Actually thanks to that video, comedian Butita was able to share his thoughts clip which saying;

Well – it’s no secret the two artistes are working on a new project set to be released soon; and after learning where the fight took place (Jaguar’s Mainswitch production studio)….I mean, how more obvious can this get?

Anyway, maybe…just maybe with the cat out of the bag; does this mean the song will soon be out – cause honestly fans want to see if it was worth it especially after the ugly things they said to each other.

Eddie Butita has a look alike ‘sista’ on social media that has left most of his followers asking whether they were separated after birth. This is mainly because the two share striking resemblance and if not for the male and female anatomy – one would think they are one in the same person.

Anyway, as the world celebrated ‘Women’s Day’ this past weekend – so did comedian Butita; but his post was aimed at clearing rumors linking him to the sexy lady believed to be his sister.

Butita on that drip!

Although the post Billy The Goat was aimed at making fun; the Twitter funny man went on to caption this post saying;

Happy international women’s day to our six Edith Butita

Butita responds

Being one who also makes fun of other people – comedian Butita reposted the post through his Instagram where he wrote;

I demand respect. I am not requesting, am demanding

Judging from the photos you can see above; it’s only fair to assume that this could be Butita’s sister from another mother and father.

Butita’s female version is undeniably hot and at least we now know how his daughters with future wife will end up looking like. Hawt!
