Comedian Vincent Mwasya, alias Chipukeezy, says he job-hunted for the role of Nacada board vice chair by himself.
Speaking to Word Is during the launch of the Chipukeezy Foundation in Tala, Machakos county, Chipukeezy said he did not get the job through Starehe MP Jaguar.
“It is wrong to look at people that way. Things don’t come easy like that, and I don’t think the President could listen to him in that way,” he said.
“I left this village to go and look for money in Nairobi. I hustled and even realised that people were different. There were those who hire those they sleep with or those they go for dinner with. I was famous but very broke.”
He said he wanted to be given a microphone to express himself as a young comedian.
“I used to attend the UhuRuto campaigns without pay and ask for the mic until I got a chance to talk to them,” he said.
“After they got to the government, one year later, while working for TV, I texted the DP William Ruto and our President Uhuru. I introduced myself and asked to talk to them. The DP responded and gave me an appointment.”
