On July 6, 2021, Jalang'o facilitated a heartwarming reconciliation between Musyoka Wambua and Aaron Matendechere, the Nitakufinya duo, who had been at odds for over a decade.
As part of their newfound peace, Jalang'o granted their wish by gifting each of them a motorbike, which they believed would significantly improve their livelihoods.
Musyoka, who had lived in fear for about a year after Matendechere threatened him in a TV interview, expressed his gratitude for the motorbike, saying it would enable him to transition from vending water to the bodaboda business.
Matendechere, who runs a barbershop in Nairobi's Mukuru Kwa Njenga area, also wished for a motorbike, which he believed would boost his business.
Furthermore, Jalang'o secured an endorsement deal for the duo, featuring them in an upcoming advert for Jahazi flour mill.
“I have a team called Unga ya Jahazi. They have agreed to work with you and feature you in their advert for ugali,” Jalango said.
The duo also appealed to Kenyans who have used their viral clip for commercial purposes to consider sharing the income with them.
“Don’t use my photo or video for free. Even if it’s in a comedy skit, include me and we can share the money,” Matendechere said.
