On June 25, 2021, actor Omosh, whose real name is Joseph Kinuthia, made headlines after claiming he was broke again and needed help.
However, comedian Jalang'o, who was one of the Kenyans who came out to help Omosh, has slammed Omosh over what he termed as 'stupidity.'
According to Jalang'o, Omosh received more than Sh. 1 million from his show, Sh. 700,000 from his pocket, a piece of land from Zero-Hero Properties, a house from Sung Timber, Sh. 100,000 in cash, and a Sh. 60,000 shopping from Hon. Alinur among other things.
“Some people never learn! I can easily assure you that Omosh got more than KSh 1m from my show. Personally in cash, he got more than KSh 700k, then the people who sent money directly to him! Hii ni ujinga” Jalang'o said.
Omosh had alleged that people had made pledges that were never fulfilled, and that he had spent all the donations he got paying debt and was now broke again.
He claimed that well-wishers had given him less than Sh. 1 million, which wasn't adequate to get him off the ground.
