African comedy sensation Erick Omondi yesterday made headlines by settling the long-standing debt of CS Moses Kuria after eight years of discord between the two.
The comedian took to his facebook page and posted a recorded video of the transaction and captioned.
“Today I have officially refunded Mheshimiwa all his money that he used to pay for my trip to the USA. Hio ingine nimemtumia na Paysii Malipo ni hapa Duniani.”
Previously at odds, Kuria had questioned Omondi’s criticism, particularly in light of having financed his trip to the United States.
In recent times, Omondi has significantly bolstered his social media presence, portraying himself as a philanthropist ready to extend assistance to any Kenyan in need. Over the past few months, the comedian has spearheaded online fundraising drives to support fellow Kenyans burdened with hefty medical bills.
Speculation has been rife that Omondi might be positioning himself for a plunge into the complex realm of politics. If he does decide to make this leap, he’ll be following in the footsteps of other comedians who ventured into politics years ago, such as John Kiarie (Dagoreti South) and Felix Odiwuor, better known as Jalang’o (Lang’ata), among others.
