”This picture has been Circulating on social media. It is time to address the nation ????????. Iit was taken in January 2014 when my show was cancelled after airing for 15minutes????????. It was not funny then, it took me a year to get over it! I was sad and frustrated, be very careful who you trust, not everybody has your best interest at heart. @sleepydavid was one of the students in my class, he is a force to reckon with…

He is aggressive and very focused and today he has managed to have his own tv show called ‘Shinning stars’ On KTN. We have grown as artists and he really has my back! I was trolled and abused on social media trended for a nearly a month. No Tv station wanted anything to do with me, doors were closed on my face. Lakini Mungu ni nani????? I learnt that when someone tells you ‘We want to put up a show for you’ think twice my friend think twice! ???? I thank my followers who have been with me for more than a decade and who support me a good one! ”
