Comedian Eric Omondi has refuted claims of being associated with the Illuminati.

In an interview with blogger Trudy Kitui, Omondi clarified that he is not a member of the Illuminati, contrary to widespread beliefs.

Omondi recounted how the rumors started during his time as a comedian on the Churchill Show. He shared a story about receiving a call from an unknown person seeking his help to join the Illuminati.

Despite trying to dissuade the individual, they persisted and even asked him to send money to facilitate their entry into the Illuminati. Omondi decided to play along, requested 50K, and instructed the person to bring a white goat and an additional 25K for further guidance. After receiving the money, he blocked the individual.

“That rumor has been there since I was on the Churchill Show. Someone called me during the day and asked me to help them join the Illuminati. I told them I didn’t know what the Illuminati was. I told them I’m not a member. They called me again at night, insisting I help them join the Illuminati,” explained Omondi.

“I told them I would help them join the Illuminati, but not to tell anyone. To join, you pay 100K, but for now, I want you to send me 50K, come with a white goat, and 25K, then I’ll tell you what to do.

And they sent the money. The money came to this phone of mine. If there’s money I’ve ever eaten, it’s that one. They called me twice; I told them they are very foolish. Later, I blocked them,” he added.

As Omondi considers entering politics, he urged young people to focus on hard work rather than entertaining the notion that joining the Illuminati would guarantee effortless success in life.

Comedian Eric Omondi has expressed his intent to intervene in the recent professional split between YouTube personalities Director Trevor and Mungai Eve.

“I wouldn’t call myself dad but I intentionally worked with Eve to grow online media. I believe my opinion in this case matters,” Omondi stated.

Omondi claims to have played a role in developing their online presence, suggesting a personal connection to their situation. He believes his perspective can be valuable in facilitating reconciliation.

“I had spoken and met both Eve and Trevor before the messy split and the issue is their friends. Ni watu kuingililia maisha yao,” Omondi said.

Proposed Intervention

Omondi plans to invite the duo for a meeting upon Eve’s return from Zanzibar, with the aim of resolving their differences and potentially reviving their brand collaboration.

He emphasizes his intent to contribute positively to the situation, regardless of the outcome.

Comedian and activist Eric Omondi has set the record straight on his family circumstances, clarifying a previous statement by his fiancée that she is his only “baby mama.” Omondi openly acknowledges being the father of two children, including media personality Jacque Maribe’s son.

In a recent Radio Jambo interview, Omondi expressed his commitment to fatherhood, affirming the possibility of living with his son from Maribe. He emphasized his responsibility and desire to be fully involved in the child’s upbringing.

This stands in contrast to a previous Q&A session on Lynne Njihia’s Instagram, where she claimed to be Omondi’s sole “baby mama.” This misinformation sparked confusion and prompted Omondi’s clarification.

The couple’s openness about their relationship, including their 19-year age gap, reflects their commitment to each other. While they currently have no plans to expand their family, Lynne’s previous “mother of one, daddy of one” statement now gains new context within Omondi’s wider family picture.

The public dispute between Omondi and Maribe regarding their son’s paternity has been ongoing, with past online exchanges adding to the complexity of the situation. Through his recent admission, Omondi takes ownership of his fatherhood role, potentially paving the way for a more constructive path forward, both for his son and his relationships with both women.

Despite his philanthropic endeavors to aid Kenyans facing financial hardship, comedian Eric Omondi has drawn a line when it comes to extending assistance to troubled music producer Magix Enga. During a recent interview, Omondi acknowledged Magix Enga’s plight but expressed hesitation in offering support due to the producer’s past claims of involvement with the Illuminati.

Omondi raised concerns about the credibility of Magix Enga’s request for financial assistance, citing the producer’s previous statement in which he openly declared his membership in the Illuminati. “I checked, for example, in the case of Magix Enga, there was a time he said he was Illuminati and that he said there was money there. How do I come again and tell Kenyans that this person needs help? Kenyans will not take me seriously when I come with a serious health issue,” Omondi explained.

In a January 2022 interview, Magix Enga made a startling confession, revealing his affiliation with the Illuminati. The music producer claimed that he joined the controversial group at the age of 23 in pursuit of fame and fortune.

Omondi’s decision to withhold aid from Magix Enga stems from his belief that supporting someone with alleged Illuminati ties could jeopardize his credibility as a philanthropist. He fears that Kenyans might dismiss his future appeals for assistance if he associates himself with individuals linked to such controversial organizations.

After months of anticipation, comedian Eric Omondi and his girlfriend, Lynn Njihia, have finally shared an intimate glimpse of their four-month-old daughter, Princess Kyla Omondi, on Lynn’s YouTube channel. This heartwarming reveal marks a significant milestone for the couple, who welcomed their little bundle of joy three months ago.

In the heartwarming video, the proud parents couldn’t contain their joy and admiration for their precious daughter. Lynn, radiating with motherly love, described Kyla as the most incredible blessing that has ever graced their lives.

Their deep emotional connection with Princess Kyla was evident as they introduced her to the world, their faces beaming with love and pride. Lynn, basking in her role as a mother, invited viewers to share their thoughts on who Princess Kyla resembles.

“You’re soooo perfect and adorable mama. Literally the best thing that has ever happened in mummy and daddy’s lives. We love you soooo much❤️. LEMME KNOW IN THE COMMENTS WHO YOU THINK KYLA LOOKS LIKE,” Lynne wrote on her Instagram, overflowing with maternal affection.

This joyous announcement comes after the couple faced the heartbreaking experience of a miscarriage in late 2022. Demonstrating their resilience and unwavering love, Eric Omondi surprised Lynn Njihia with an epic gender reveal party in July 2023, as captured on his YouTube channel.

The couple’s journey from sorrow to celebration is beautifully reflected in the public unveiling of Princess Kyla. Interestingly, Eric Omondi had playfully set a condition for revealing his daughter’s face – a joking demand of Sh50 million.

The reveal has been met with an abundance of love and support, as fans and well-wishers pour their hearts out on social media, showering Princess Kyla with admiration.

Popular Kenyan comedian Eric Omondi has announced that he will finally reveal the face of his daughter, Kyla Omondi, to the public on Thursday, November 23, 2023. The decision to unveil Kyla’s face comes after an anonymous individual agreed to pay a significant sum of money, which Omondi had previously stated as his asking price for the reveal.

In a statement released on Monday, November 20, 2023, Omondi expressed his gratitude to the unnamed individual for their generosity and willingness to support his family. He also acknowledged the public’s curiosity about Kyla and stated that he was excited to finally share her face with the world.

“I’m so grateful to the person who made this offer possible,” Omondi said. “I know many people have been waiting to see Kyla’s face, and I’m happy to finally be able to share her with the world.”

Omondi has previously spoken about his desire to protect his daughter’s privacy, but he ultimately decided to reveal her face in exchange for a substantial financial contribution. He has not disclosed the exact amount of money involved, but he has hinted that it is a significant sum.

“This is a life-changing amount of money for me and my family,” Omondi said. “It will allow us to provide Kyla with the best possible opportunities in life.”

The comedian’s decision to monetize the reveal of his daughter’s face has drawn mixed reactions from the public. Some people have expressed their understanding of Omondi’s financial needs, while others have questioned the ethics of profiting from a child’s image.

Regardless of the public’s opinion, Omondi is determined to proceed with the reveal. He has promised to share Kyla’s face with the world on Thursday, November 23, 2023, and the anticipation is building among his fans and followers.

Renowned Kenyan comedian Eric Omondi has announced that he will be revealing the face of his daughter, Kyla Omondi, on Thursday, November 24, 2023. This decision comes after an anonymous individual paid the stipulated fee of Ksh 50 million for the exclusive right to showcase the child’s face to the public.

In July of this year, Omondi, who has also taken on the role of an activist, made the surprising announcement that he would not be unveiling his daughter’s face on social media for free. He explained that he would be charging a substantial Ksh 50 million for the reveal.

“Revealing my child’s face will not be cheap,” Omondi stated. “In order for me to unveil the face of my child, I will need to be paid Ksh 50 million. Whoever offers that amount, even if it’s a newspaper, will be the ones to showcase her face. My child’s face is very rare and precious.”

Omondi jokingly remarked that he kept the fee relatively low, considering the challenging economic conditions facing the country.

The comedian has now claimed that someone paid the Ksh 50M just for the face reveal.

” Kuna bazuu amefika bei. Kuna mtu amewalipia kuona princess, 50M ya Kyla nakula tu polepole,

The decision to charge for the reveal of his daughter’s face has sparked a range of reactions, with some questioning the comedian’s motives while others expressing understanding of his financial needs. Regardless of the public’s opinion, Omondi has remained firm in his stance, emphasizing the value of privacy and the need to protect his daughter’s image.

All eyes will be on Omondi on Thursday as he prepares to unveil the face of his daughter, Kyla, to the world. The reveal, shrouded in anticipation and intrigue, is sure to generate significant buzz and media attention.

Kenyan comedian and activist Eric Omondi, has called upon Kenyans to join him in protests against the new fuel prices.

In a video, Omondi announced that the rallies would begin on Tuesday, September 19, 2023, outside Parliament buildings.

“We are going to start a revolution from this Tuesday. I’m calling upon every young man who disagrees with tax increases and the high cost of living we meet at the Kenya National Parliament on Tuesday at 9 a.m. Wacha kiumane… because it is not getting any better. They have started taxing school-going children,” Omondi said.

“I want to tell the President to do what you can do, do your best …enough is enough. We are going to bring revolution to your doorstep. One day you will realize we have 55 million Kenyans and less than 2,000 government officials,” he added.

Omondi’s call for protests comes after he and the co-accused were sentenced to one month in prison or a fine of Ksh10,000 for holding an unlawful assembly while protesting against the rising cost of living.

Omondi’s call for protests has been met with mixed reactions from Kenyans. Some people have praised him for speaking out against the high cost of living, while others have expressed concern that the protests could turn violent.

It is important to note that the right to protest is a fundamental right guaranteed by the Kenyan Constitution. However, it is also important to ensure that protests are conducted peacefully and within the law.

Comedian Eric Omondi has announced that he will no longer be pursuing his comedic cross-dressing persona.

In an interview with Nairobi News, Omondi said that he has made the decision to focus on philanthropy and helping those in need.

“I stopped cross-dressing until further notice. What I am doing right now involves women, children, and more, so it will be hard to see that character,” he said.

Omondi has been cross-dressing for over 15 years, and his alter ego, Divalicious, has become a popular character in Kenya. However, he said that he feels it is time to move on and focus on helping others.

“I will donate all my clothes and keep some for future use. I will be doing more charity work, and the fact that Kenyans have supported me, I am now ready to give back to society. There is so much they have done for me,” he said.

Omondi’s decision to end his cross-dressing persona has been met with mixed reactions. Some fans have expressed disappointment, while others have praised him for his commitment to philanthropy.

Omondi has said that he is not concerned about the reaction of his fans, and that he is simply following his heart.

“I felt selfish, and that is why I am now willing to serve Kenyans. Right now, my focus is on helping Kenyans through whichever means that is possible,” he said.

Omondi is a well-known and respected figure in Kenya, and his decision to end his cross-dressing persona is likely to have a significant impact on the country’s entertainment industry. However, his fans can rest assured that he will continue to entertain them in other ways.

Comedian Eric Omondi has hinted at the possibility of entering the political arena, and the role that political Azimio leader Raila Odinga and his wife Ida might play in his potential political career.

Omondi’s philanthropic efforts and activism have fueled rumors of political ambition, and he recently shed light on his discussions with the Odingas and his contemplation of a political future.

On September 11, Omondi met with Raila Odinga, a move that many interpreted as a significant step toward a political career.

Omondi expressed his gratitude for the meeting, saying, “Spent the day with Baba Yesterday and received too much wisdom. The future is too bright. There is a lot of Hope. Tomorrow looks good.”

The following day, on September 12, Omondi spent time with Ida Odinga, further fueling speculation about his political aspirations.

However, in an interview with Mzazi Willy Tuva on Radio Citizen, Omondi clarified that these meetings were not politically motivated but were rather focused on other aspects of life.

He pointed out that should he venture into politics he would have to consult Raila and Ida.

“Maneno ya siasa ilikuja sababu nilianza kusaidia watu, lakini huo muda ukifika nitarudi tena kwa baba na mama. Juzi tumeongea mambo ya biashara na ndoa,” Omondi explained.

Omondi also addressed the ongoing rumors about his potential candidacy for the Lang’ata parliamentary seat.

He acknowledged the significant support he has received from his followers and the encouragement to run for office, saying, given the effort he has put into pushing for change, he is seriously thinking about running for office.

It remains to be seen whether Omondi will ultimately decide to run for political office. However, his recent meetings with Raila and Ida Odinga, as well as his admission that he is considering a political future, suggest that he is at least open to the possibility.

Comedian Eric Omondi has defended himself against allegations that he is a deadbeat father.

Omondi, who was speaking during an interview with Oga Obinna, said he will give his side of the story in the near future. He claimed that he risks being taken to court if he discloses the truth now.

“I can’t talk about this story now, or I’ll be taken to court, but one day I’ll tell my truth about being a deadbeat,” he said.

This comes after Omondi’s baby mama, media personality Jacque Maribe, issued a “final disclaimer” to him over their son’s DNA test.

Maribe said she was tired of engaging in the “endless paternity discourse” and called out Omondi for dragging parenthood into his comedy.

“I’ve kept quiet for long. This liar called Eric should come correct and I come with receipts. I have resisted responding to this liar. He thinks parenting is part of his comedy. He lies about everything. Leave my name and my child out of your comedy Eric. I’m tired,” she wrote.

Omondi and Maribe met in 2012 after a staff party at their company, Radio Africa. They had a one-night stand, and Maribe later told Omondi that she was pregnant.

Omondi says he asked for a DNA test, but Maribe refused. He has been requesting a DNA test ever since, but she has continued to refuse.

The paternity of the child has been a source of speculation for years, and Omondi’s recent comments have only added to the controversy.

It remains to be seen whether Omondi will ever be able to prove his paternity, but his claims have certainly put the spotlight on the issue of deadbeat fathers.

In the meantime, Omondi says he is focused on being a good father to his other children. He has three children from previous relationships.

Comedian Eric Omondi is considering running for the Lang’ata Member of Parliament seat in the next general election.

Omondi, who has been doing philanthropic activities in Lang’ata, said that he has been encouraged by the public to consider running for office.

“Many people have told me to vie for the Lang’ata MP seat,” Omondi said. “There has been gossip that I am eying the seat, yet I have never shared it with anybody. Today, I can’t go to Lang’ata because people think I am their MP and want my help.”

The seat is currently held by Phelix Odiwuor, better known as Jalang’o, a fellow entertainer who ventured into politics in 2022.

Omondi said that he is still undecided about whether to run for office, but he is open to the idea.

“I will think about running for the political seat,” Omondi said. “It seems people have endorsed me. There is a saying that people’s voices are God’s and I believe in that.”

If Omondi decides to run for office, he will be the second comedian to do so in Kenya. Jalang’o is currently serving as the MP for Lang’ata.

Omondi’s entry into the political arena would be a significant development. He is a popular figure with a large following, and his candidacy could shake up the political landscape in Lang’ata.

Only time will tell whether Omondi will run for office, but his consideration of the matter is a sign of the growing interest in politics among Kenyan entertainers.

Kenyan comedian and activist Eric Omondi has shifted his four-day fundraising campaign to Rwanda due to a nationwide power outage in Kenya.

Omondi had originally planned to kick off the campaign on Friday, August 25, with a non-stop online fundraising drive. However, the power outage has made it difficult to stream the event live.

“Just landed in Rwanda Kigali,” Omondi wrote on Instagram. “Last night I Googled which East African Country has the least Power black outages and results said Kigali. I am thinking of doing the 4 days of Fundraising from here. No sabotages. Just saving lives.”

Omondi’s determination to assist those in dire need of financial help is evident in his Instagram post. He expressed the overwhelming influx of messages from individuals facing urgent financial challenges.

“The gravity of these pleas for assistance has surpassed my individual capacity to intervene effectively,” Omondi said.

Among the distressing cases, Omondi has identified five particularly critical situations that will be the primary beneficiaries of the fundraising efforts. These cases include a cancer patient urgently requiring treatment in India, an individual in need of a kidney transplant, another requiring open-heart surgery, and the construction of a children’s home to provide shelter for 35 homeless children.

Omondi is currently in Rwanda and is expected to start the fundraising campaign soon. He has urged his fans and followers to donate generously to help those in need.

“Let’s come together and make a difference in the lives of those who are less fortunate,” Omondi said. “Together, we can make a change.”

The fundraising campaign is a testament to Omondi’s commitment to helping others. He is a true inspiration and a role model for many. His actions show that even one person can make a difference in the world.

If you would like to donate to Omondi’s fundraising campaign, you can do so through his website or social media pages. Every little bit helps.

Comedian Eric Omondi is known for his outrageous stunts, but his latest one landed him in hot water.

Omondi was arrested on Thursday for driving his infamous “shoebaru,” a car made entirely of shoes. The car was impounded by the City Council of Nairobi askaris, who said that it was an illegal modification of a vehicle.

Omondi was taken to Central police station, where he was questioned by police. He was later released on bail.

The comedian took to social media to express his frustration, saying that he was being targeted for his creativity. He also said that he would not be intimidated by the authorities.

The arrest of Omondi has sparked a debate about the limits of free speech and expression in Kenya. Some people believe that Omondi was arrested for his political views, while others believe that he was simply breaking the law.

The case is still ongoing, and it remains to be seen what the outcome will be.

Kenyan comedian Eric Omondi and his partner Lynne welcomed their daughter Kyla Omondi days ago. The comedian has maintained that he will not reveal his daughter’s face unless he is paid Ksh50 million by a brand or individual.

However, Omondi said he is open to negotiating. Those with Ksh6 million can see her ears, Ksh5 million for her nose, Ksh13 million for her smile, and Ksh24 million for her eyes.

In an interview with Radio Jambo, Omondi made it clear that he does not want to expose his daughter’s face for his own personal benefit, but is doing it for Kenyans who are suffering in these difficult economic times. He said that this is just a way to raise money so that he can help people.

Recently, Omondi managed to raise at least Sh600,000 for a mother whose son Pyden Mudoga is admitted at KNH battling a rare condition.

Omondi’s decision to charge for the reveal of his daughter’s face has been met with mixed reactions. Some people have praised him for his creativity and for finding a way to raise money for charity. Others have criticized him for being insensitive and for exploiting his daughter.

Only time will tell how much money Omondi will be able to raise for charity with this unique fundraising campaign. However, it is clear that he is committed to helping others, even if it means putting his own daughter’s privacy at risk

Comedian Eric Omondi has expressed his sadness at the death of one-month-old Baby Pyden Mudonga, for whom he had raised over Sh1.42 million to help with medical expenses.

Baby Pyden had been admitted to the Kenyatta National Hospital with cancer, but Omondi helped the family move him to a specialized facility.

In a video released on his social media accounts, Omondi said that he was “heartbroken” by the news of Baby Pyden’s death. He offered his condolences to the family and thanked everyone who had contributed to the fundraising efforts.

“I want to thank everyone who donated to the fundraiser. Your generosity made a difference in Baby Pyden’s life,” Omondi said. “He was able to get the best possible care, and he fought bravely until the end.”

Omondi also called upon the government to improve the public healthcare system so that more vulnerable people can access quality care.

“This is a tragedy that should never have happened,” Omondi said. “Baby Pyden deserved better.”

Omondi has been using his platform to raise awareness about various social issues in Kenya, including healthcare and government accountability. He has also been involved in various philanthropic efforts, such as the fundraising campaign for Baby Pyden.

Omondi’s death is a reminder of the need for better healthcare in Kenya. It is also a reminder of the importance of philanthropy and the power of people to come together to help those in need.
