Comedian Daniel Ndambuki, aka Churchill, has spoken about his life before fame, revealing he worked as a casual labourer in Industrial Area.
Churchill shared his story during the Ruach Festival at Sarit Centre Expo on November 26, 2019.
He recalled working in Industrial Area, washing bottles for peanuts, and struggling to afford food and transport.
‘I used to work in Industrial Area washing bottles and I would be paid peanuts. The money wasn’t enough for food and transport. Things were not easy back then,’ Churchill told Mpasho.
Churchill also expressed his gratitude for being part of the Ruach Festival, which he described as refreshing and restoring.
‘I wish it could happen every other day. I needed it and I’m sure those who came there were totally blessed and it must have made a lot of difference in their lives.’
The event, themed ‘To restore, rebuild and revive’, featured top comedians, including Uganda’s Salvado, Kenya’s MC Jessy, Sleepy David, MCA Tricky, Otos, and Dr Ofweneke.
Gospel singer Guardian Angel was the artiste of the night.
