In his latest parody, Eric Omondi was mimicking health CS, Mutahi Kagwe, but this time, addressing the Ksh 100 million, President Uhuru had allocated to Kenyan artistes.
Well, soon after the President’s announcement on the 6th of April, what many were left asking was: how will the money be distributed?
There have been issues as to who is an artist. There has been questions as to who should get what and these are very genuine concerns to us as a Ministry and as a government.
He tagged along a bouncer, tasked with the responsibility of carrying the money, that was bundled into a big carton.
According to the comedian, ‘an artist is anybody who can make you laugh, who can make you cry, who can make you dance and who can make you jump’.
However, Eric Omondi, acting Mutai Kage expressed concern that the money would not be sufficient for every artist to get a share.
Hii pesa haiwezi tosha kila msanii. We can’t give everybody the same amount.
Distribution
CS Mutai started mentioning current Kenyan artistes, starting with controversial artist, Ringtone Apoko who was asked to get his royalties from Skiza tunes.
Ringtone aende achukue zake huko kwa skiza. Si anaitwa ringtone?
Next on line was boy band, Sauti Sol, represented by well-built bouncers, shirtless and donning a pair of trousers. The ‘CS’ ridiculously expressed:
For Sauti Sol, it’s a bit of emergency, it’s urgent. Wapewe pesa yao saa hii waende wanunue nguo hapo Toy market. It doesn’t look good. Then the rest of these artistes can share what will be left.
For Willy Paul, famously labeled ‘bwana mkunaji’ Mr Mutai humorously said:
Huyu tumuachie kucha.
Bahati’s situation raised an alarm, coming in with his 4 children and wife, Diana, baby mama Yvette, as well as his signees before shutting down EMB.
All CS Mutai could say was that probably all the money should be given to Bahati to take care of his ‘large family’.
Forget Willy Paul. I think you have seen Bahati. It is his luck that he has a lot of children. I suggest we give him all the money. We can see the product of the artiste and the needs and necessity of him being given the money.
