Luck

The comedian recently explained how he came up with his signature dress code. According to Jalango, it wasn’t planned at all and he really just needed to get on stage fast when he happened to pick the blouse.

“About this shirt. I only have 1..Ok about this blouse! First it is made of siphon…is that the right word? So we were acting at the national theatre and I was late to change and get into my next scene so I picked anything to just wear….I picked this blouse that belonged to arigi…everyone laughed when I got on stage….As they say the rest is_______________?,” He said on Instagram.

Remember you’re repping a whole country hapo! Reaction as Jalang’o introduces his new Asian ‘friend’ Coco

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Comedian Jalang’o was recently on Instagram to show off his new friend and Kenyans were more than a little bit judgey.

Jalas, who only introduces Otoyo-like friends on his social media platform, surprised Kenyans by posting a super cute Chinese lady who goes by the name Coco.

Coco is one hot woman and we all know Jalas is very much single. So when he posted her, Kenyans had a lot to say about the two given that the last foreigner posted on Jalang’o page was former US president Barrack Obama.

Obama, if you look at it keenly, is not even a foreigner So Jalas hasn’t been post a lot of then on his platform.

Jalango pens lovely message to Amina Abdi for being a hard worker and motivating other women

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Comedian Jalang’o is one of the hardest working media personalities in Kenya. The guys wakes up at 3 am in the morning and goes to sleep at barely 12 midnight almost everyday.

So he knows what true hard works means and will always appreciate it whenever he spots it.

Jalang’o recently had some lovely message for Capital FM presenter Amina Abdi who is also another hard worker in the business and has a tight schedule just as his.

Amina hosts a radio show, hosts The Trend on NTV and also has a show on Maisha Magic. She’s also an MC who is on high demand and…a mother of one.

Her schedule is as packed as they come and Jalango is proud of her.

“Today let me tell you a short story about my sister @amina_kenya. She is one of the top female events hosts in Africa…one of the most humble hard working people I know! Most of you would think that I am just talking but this is a trailblazer! Tv host at the trend! Radio host, tv host at Maisha magic..super event host!” said Jalango. 

Motivation

He went on to say that her hustle should be used as a benchmark by other ladies since she’s motivating a lot of women out there to focus on their hustles.

“Amina may your hustle inspire a girl out there to make them see you as a role model! I am happy that I know you and you are my friend! To any event organisers looking for a top duo male and female host…..Heavy J and Amina will make your event what you wanted and even more!.” 

Jalang’o and Alex Mwakideu disagree live on air and end up switching off each other’s Mics 

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Radio hosts Jalang’o and Alex Mwakideu are very good friends but when it’s working time, the two Milele FM breakfast show presenters switch to something close to enemies.

The two recently ended up having a very heated argument live on radio that almost turned ugly and even saw the two switch off each other mics.

Jalas and Mwakideu were discussing ‘The Michuki rules’ which are now making a comeback.

Mwakideu claimed that he had an issue with the return of the law because it would make innocent Kenyans suffer for the mistakes of the enforcers.

“Kenyans walked during Michuki’s time for two weeks and I was one of them and we walked because we wanted this change and they changed. After the law was implemented it was upon the police to ensure it was enforced until today. Kenyans should not suffer again on Monday,” Alex said. 

Tension

Jalango on the hand, wanted matatus to be controlled by the rules because they have been out of line lately.

“You have a lot of lies on radio and you are not even supposed to be a radio presenter here because you have travelled and lived abroad and you know how things happen there,” said Jalang’o.

The two argued to a point they were burning with anger leaving the studio melting with tension.

“You have a lot of lies on radio and you are not even supposed to be a radio presenter here because you have traveled and lived abroad and you know how things happen there,” Jalas said.
