Statehouse employee Dennis Itumbi has found himself in trouble with Kenyans on twitter after he shared the news of Legendary Jamaican reggae artist Kenyatta Hill endorsing Jubilee’s candidate in the November 7 Kibra by elections McDonald Mariga.
Itumbi posted Kenyatta Hill’s video, captioning it “Kenyatta Hill Endorses Mariga. He will be performing on Sunday in Kibra.”
In the video, the legendary singer who is the son to former reggae star Joseph Hill of the group Mighty Culture says he will be in Kenya for one reason.
Kenyatta Hill, who is named after Kenya’s founding father Jomo Kenyatta says he will be here to support Mariga because Mariga has promised to support the talent once elected.
But Kenyans on twitter have refused to take any of Itumbi’s narrative. They argue that Kenyatta Hill is just after money. Some are arguing that he comes from one of the most poorest regions in the world.
Some have accused Itumbi and his team of affording the money to pay the musician but can’t afford to upgrade Kibra.
Some blasted Itumbi for what they argued as thinking that performing at a rally based on a promise will make things change for their candidate.
Kenyatta Hill began his music career one day after the death of his father Joseph Hill who collapsed and died while on stage in Germany in 2006.
From the time of the death of his father, Kenyatta Hill has staged numerous shows across the world perhaps proving to the globe that he has the capacity to step into the shoes of his late dad who was internationally respected for songs including Adis Ababa, Where Do You Get Your Bread Mr Slagad, Wings Of A Dove, Be Honest To Yourselves, among others.
