Published on June 25, 2021, Kenyans sympathized with actor Peter Kamau Kinuthia, alias Omosh, after he shared his plight of struggling financially since quitting the popular TV show Tahidi High on Citizen TV.

Thousands of shillings were donated to help him get back on his feet, but Omosh has now begged for more, claiming that the donations he received were below Ksh1 million and were used to settle debts.

However, comedian Felix Odiwuor, alias Jalang'o, has contested Omosh's allegations, stating that he received more than Ksh1 million from his show, including Ksh700,000 in cash and a piece of land with a house built on it.

‘Some people never learn. Hii ni ujinga tupu (this is total crap),’ Jalang'o said in response to Omosh's claims.

It remains unclear how Omosh utilized the donations, but it is known that he struggles with alcohol addiction, having confessed to it in past interviews.
