TPF5: Kenya’s Doreen and Uganda’s Allan On Probation Yet Again!

As Tusker Project Fame entered its third week of nominations and evictions, both the judges and the audience expected contestants to up their game and give it their best  at a time when the stakes are higher than ever.

Eunice Guttu, Allan Roy Sekiranda and Nancy Chan were the lucky contestants to be saved from eviction on the Saturday night show while the axe fell on Tanzanian Damian Mihayo and Rwanda’s Fatuma Muhonza who were to immediately leave the TPF Academy.
For obvious fear of eviction just when everything was getting better, the contestants sang their hearts out on the Sunday nomination night show. Kenyan favourite Ruth Matete brought the house down with her rendition of the Mariah Carey track “Anytime you need a friend”, a performance which Principal Hellen Mtawali praised for her command on the stage. Nancy Chan, who had nothing short of an underwhelming performance last week had a much better one this time round and managed to keep off the dreaded nomination roster.
Jackson, who had a hard time getting the dance moves during the week, performed Pepe Kale’s “Moyibi” to great applause from the audience which sadly wasn’t enough to save him from probation.

By the end of the night he joined probation regular Allan Roy Sekiranda, Kenyans Steve Homes and Doreen Nyawira as well as Eunice Guttu.
The fifth edition of Tusker Project Fame now features a narrowed down list of ten contestants from Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Southern Sudan and Burundi battling it out for the top prize – a KSh5 million cash prize and a recording deal worth KSh10 million with Universal Music Group, one of the world’s leading music production and merchandising companies.
