Month: February 2015

In this world of friends with benefits, clandes, mpango wa kandos, threesomes and one night stands, the word soul mate is a word that you do not hear so often.

It like people have given up on this love thing, but once in a while you meet some people who remind you that love still exists. And Catherine Kamau recently shared a message that had us crooning and our hearts melting into a gooey pile of awws….

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU MY SOULMATE, MY BEST FRIEND THANK YU FOR THE MOST BEAUTIFUL 3 YEARS OF MY LIFE MAY THE GOOD LORD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU MY BAE

Homeboyz radio presenter and actress Patricia Kihoro is one of the few actresses in the 254 to have been nominated for major awards thanks to her prowess in the acting industry.

Patricia has featured in different casts which have seen get different nominations, putting her on top of the rest.

Speaking exclusively to Ghafla Kenya, Patricia attributes her success to hard work and dedication, and reveals the number of nominations she has received.

This is a clear indication that the actress-cum-radio presenter is better than many of us thought at first and she is not stopping it any time soon.

Among the nominations she has received include the following:

As a person who is an outright carbon copy of her mum, I can bear witness to just how strong some genes are.

And Dorothy Nyong’o has some pretty strong genes, as demonstrated in a photo Miss Lupita shared of a younger Dorothy and Lupita side by side. From the arresting eyes  to the perfect nose to the pearly whites, there is no doubt that Lupita belongs to Dorothy, the genes did not even skip a beat.

Like mother (1983), like daughter (2015). #behindthescenes @luckymagazine @lancomeusa #OhToBeHalfTheWomanMyMumIs! #bts

It appears KTN rubbed Kenyans on Facebook (KOF) the wrong way with their web migration placement. The way KOF mauled KTN is enough to make your day bright, why lie.

Who said KOF was empathetic with KTN and other disgruntled TV channels that are still crying out loud to have their analogue signals restored?

KOF once again exercised their brutality on social media only this time round the victim wasn’t Robert Alai or any of his kind. It was one of the country’s most loved TV channel, KTN. (Seems it is no longer loved.)

It seem even KTN’s loyal viewers switched allegiance since they were conspicuously missing in action to defend the channel when unsympathetic mob was lynching it on social media after posting a piece of ‘controversial’ advertisement.

KTN was on the receiving end after it posted an advertisement online announcing it has migrated to the web.

Is migrating to the web still considered a digital migration? Well KOT didn’t bother, it went on to roast KTN anyway. Below are some of the comments posted after KTN’s ‘special’ announcement:

Digital Migration has been the topic of discussion for a long time now, with four TV stations shutting down after their squabbles with the government went overboard.

While the government has been adamant that digital migration is a must, the three major media houses in the country have been requesting for more time to prepare themselves for the migration amid wrangles that a foreign company was awarded more frequencies at the expense of the local investors.

Standard Media, Nation Media and Royal Media have come under immense criticism from the government and a section of Kenyans for shutting down their TV stations from digital platforms, with threats for disciplinary action rife from the government.

And now Standard Media editor Joe Ageyo has bashed the government for lying to Kenyans about digital migration, making the four stations look like they are after money and not development.

In an article in the Standard, Ageyo says that he is not against digital migration but there are issues that should be looked into before the whole thing is realized.

First he says that the government’s motive is to control everything that the media does. He explains that giving KBC through Signet and PANG more frequencies at the expense of other local players is an indication that the government wants to control media through the two.

Ageyo highlights that PANG and Signet will be in control of frequencies and this means that they will be able to switch off any station that will try to criticize the government.

He gives an example of the numberless calls editors receive when carrying out investigative stories like those done by Mohammed Ali, demanding that such stories not be aired or published. Ageyo therefore believes the government will be able to switch off such stations when they want to criticize it through such stories.

He also says that those thinking that the three media houses fear competition are wrong. He assures that no media house is against digital migration and that the government is frustration freedom of the media through digital migration.

The four TV stations are still shut down.

Laura Oyier Ogolla came from being a struggling musician  to becoming an overnight celebrity after she was charged in court by The Intercontinental Hotel for incurring a bill of Sh229, 505, which she was unable to pay.

This was after she allegedly spent 21 days including Valentine’s Day at the fancy hotel. She became so infamous that Kenyans began paying attention to the unimportant details such as her sad looking pencil thin eyebrows that were still stuck in the 20’s.

Photo:Droid 254

It is alleged that Laura spent her days at the hotel waiting for a man, a Nigerian. Many have been curious about the said man who embarrassed her publicly by failing to show up and failing to foot the bill. And Laura has promised to reveal his identity, but there is a catch. She wants money first then she can reveal her suitor’s identity, and not on just any platform on the biggest platforms in Kenya that is Jeff Koinange Live, The Churchill Show or on Maina Kageni’s Show.This is according to People daily

Her reason for what some may consider diva demand is that “Why be tarnished and still stay broke?” And she has a point.

 

Nairobi Half Life was the talk of the nation when it was released. Kenyans for the first time were proud of a local film. Following in the footstep of Nairobi Half Life, Mike Muikia or better known as Mike Ji, pieced together the first Kenyan musician series.

The ground-breaking ceremony for the official screening of ‘Nayomi’ will be happening this coming Saturday at Six Eighty Hotel from 3:30 pm.

Nayomi is a motion picture adaptation of untrue stories but captured with extreme realisms. Approved and rated PG by the Kenya Film Classification Board, the film focuses of various characters stories and how they intertwine to shape a little girl’s life that grows into a compassionate, resilient woman.

 

The producer, Mike Ji (a former JKUAT student) used some great visual trickery to make the series appealing to viewers.

Season 1 of musical NAYOMI introduces each character in their niches and how human relationships influence each one of them. Season 2 will focus on NAYOMI as a resilient woman, having brought up by a violent father, Bari, and a purely opposite character mother, Pretah.

The new series stars Naomi Waweru, Sarah Muoti, Michael Mukumbu, Emily Wanjiru and Julius Mwanzia gives this wonderful musical a fine and magnificent realism of the stories told.

This Saturday the 28th will be a day like no other as Mike Ji reveals Kenya’s first Musical series backed up by Pitson, Mwenyehaki, Njoro the Comedian and many other artistes in the entertainment industry.

Robert Agengo is among the few actors in Kenya who have featured in different casts playing quite hilarious and entertaining characters.

He has acted for Kona, Makutano Junction, Mali just to name a few.

However, many people do not know who Robert Agengo exactly is. Despite appearing on our screen sometimes as a thief and sometimes as a cool guy who takes instructions carefully and religiously, Robert as a person is made of different things.

In an exclusive interview with Ghafla Kenya, the actor has revealed that he is also an amateur boxer. Amateur boxing is where one boxes to entertain and according to Agengo, it is different from professional boxing where one earns from boxing as a profession.

The Mali actor says that he has practised boxing ever since he was young and that he loves it as much as he does for acting.

So how many contests have you won?

“I have been up the ring three times. I won twice and lost once,” Robert says with a broad smile on his face.

How about the characters you play on screen? Do people take you the way you appear on screen?

“Mmmmh, not really. No one has ever taken me to be a thief. They are just characters and that is all.”

What does the boxer say about being given such roles in most casts?

 

Jeff Koinange has proven that any man can be beat, just like you know, the way superman finally finds a way to beat Kryptonite..If you have been following the battle that we can only equate to the Greece-Troy, you might have realized that Jeff Koinange thrashed Larry Madomo and left him in a puddle of filth, blood and urine,-figuratively. 

 If you go to way back in the day when we still had TV’s working, The two journalists challenged each other to a twitter battle to see who got to 500k followers on twitter first. The loser consequentially would have to donate  a pre-agreed sum of 20k to a charity of choice. The long winded battle took quite a turn on twitter with the clamor to see who would win and who would lose. 

 

 

It was fun to watch, and eventually it became evident that, Larry Madowo, the self-proclaimed nomad was fighting a losing battle, (refer to the previous statement about filth, urine and blood)  

Larry even asked for help from an unlikely source, Dennis Itumbi. 

While Larry was 42k shy of the 500k mark, Jeff Koinange was only a 1000 followers away! The race had been won, unless Larry introduced bots, fake followers,- or bought followers like someone we know.

The difference.. 

We shall have to wait for the charity that Larry will donate money to. 

 

Capital FM presenter and singer Amina recently bore a baby boy for her husband DJ John and since then the lass has been enjoying every bit of being a mother.

She revealed recently that the joy that comes with being a mother is just unimaginable and that she spends most of the time when she is off the mic to look after Tumi, her young one.

Amina has again revealed her plans of being a mother once again.

Speaking exclusively to Ghafla Kenya, the talented singer and radio presenter says that she intends to have more children in the near future because she feels she is not done yet.

“I will probably have more children because being a mother is such a wonderful feeling”, Amina quips.

How many children does the lass intend to have?

“Probably one or two more, I wouldn’t exceed that. I don’t want to have very many children.”

she goes on to reveal her future plans. See what she said in this interview:

Last evening, the government was dealt a heavy blow on the chins when the constitutional court revoked eight section of the ‘draconian’ security law.

A five-judge panel namely; Justices Isaac Lenaola, Mumbi Ngugi, Hedwig Ong’udi, Hillary Chemitei and Louis Onguto annulled eight sections of the contentious security law.

The sections quashed include those that were seeking to limit freedom of expression and media freedom. Those touching on the right of an accused to be released on bail and the provision limiting refugees coming in to the country to 150,000 were also abolished.

The eight sections of the security law that were nullified include; sections 12, 16, 20, 26, 34, 48 and 95.

---

 Justice Isaac Lenaola led his colleagues in issuing stern warning to the media. He reiterated reckless reporting and publication of pictures of dead victims of terror attacks like the one that occurred last December could incur legal penalties.

                         Justice Isaac Lenaola

It is a big reprieve for Mohammed Ali (and the media in general) and Boniface Mwangi (human rights groups) who were the leading voices that were utterly discontented with the disputable security law that approved by parliament in an acrimonious session that saw some law makers exchanging blows on the floor of the house.

The media and specifically the three major media houses in the country – Standard Media, Nation Media and Royal Media Services – have been on the loggerheads with the government recently following the digital migration debacle that saw some TV stations completely switched off.

While the government maintains that it is time we migrated to digital broadcasting, the three media houses are not ready to embrace this change, citing reasons that they need more time to import their own decorders.

Well, this perhaps explains why they have launched scathing attacks on the government, with the latest being seeking an opinion from blogger Robert Alai over the Presidential Strategic Communications Unit (PSCU).

Alai says that he received a phone call from the Standard Media asking if he thinks PSCU is a government propaganda tool.

Alai, as expected, took to his social media account to blast Standard Media, saying it is after the media house got held on its balls that they are realizing that PSCU is a government propaganda tool.

Alai says that him and blogger Dikembe Disembe have always said this but media houses saw them as haters. It is at this time that they are realizing they were right and now they are seeking their opinion over the same.

#10

In the eyes of many people, Shaniqua is this bold socialite who always intimidates whoever she meets by bombarding them with a lot of hogwash but after having a sit down with her last weekend, we were utterly shocked.

Last Friday night, my colleague and I happened to bumped into Shaniqua in Karen during the launch of Candy n Candy group of companies.

We were informed of Shaniqua’s presence by Freddy, a close associate of the socialite. From the world go, we desperately wanted to meet the socialite but I suddenly developed cold feet.

I mean this is Shaniqua we are talking about, the same socialite who ‘muuurdered’ Larry Madowo on The Trend. Didn’t want her to flirt with me, not in the presence of ladies.

Dragging me to one of the rooms, Freddy introduced me to Shaniqua who was sand-witched among five or so pretty ladies.

To my surprise, I met Kevin Muthaka and not Shaniqua. I expected to see Shaniqua the socialite, the one with a bird’s nest on the head, that old cheap weave that she always wears. But nope! There was Kevin not Shaniqua. Same person just different characters.

He was equally excited to meet the two of us. We requested to have a chat with him and he humbly agreed with his small voice.

---

Even the other folks in the room had a  difficult time identifying him. His brownish teeth however sold him out, they were real. The ever smiling Kevin has all over sudden turned to a celebrity again!

The moment guys realized he was Shaniqua, everyone scrabbled to take a picture with him. Believe it or not, Kevin is a very cool guy. He never uttered a single word the entire time. He was just smiling for the camera as while revelers scrambled to take a picture with him.

So wearing ladies’ clothes makes him go ‘haywire’! Shaniqua or rather Kevin Muthaka is the most down-to-earth person one can ever meet.

Ooh and the photos I’m just from talking about:

Media poaching has been a rampant practice in the media industry in Kenya lately, with media houses luring journalists from one station to another with hefty perks, leaving other stations to search for fresh talent from elsewhere.

Early 2013 saw K24 TV making the greatest poaching ever experienced in the fourth estate fraternity in Kenya when they raided Royal Media Services and snatched them their best journalists, among them Torome Tirike, Geoffrey Wachira, Frankline Macharia and many others.

K24 is under Media Max, a media house that also owns Milele FM, who are on the spotlight this time round for raiding Radio Jambo of their mid-morning show host Sir Bramwel Mwololo.

Ghafla can exclusively reveal that Mwololo is on his way out of Radio Jambo to take over the morning show at Milele FM hosted by Maggy Waithera and Mogaka the Choir Master.

                          Sir Bramwell Mwololo

However, the deal has not been brokered as Mwololo wants to join Milele with some conditions, among them hosting the show with comedian Njoro of Churchill show.

Milele wants Mwololo to team up with Dr. Ofweneke and Nzula Makosi in the morning show as Mogaka and Maggy Waithera are demoted to the mid-morning show.

Meanwhile the station has killed the ‘Patipati’ reggae Caribbean show which has high ratings. The Sartuday night Rhumba show has also been kicked out.

Ghafla Kenya made efforts to reach out to Sir Bram for comment but our calls went unanswered.

Media Max has also poached all morning show hosts of Muuga FM for its new Meru Radio station.

Milele FM has been on the decline since the departure of Vincent Ateya from the station, a guy who commanded a high following in the morning show he hosted with Mogaka.

Is this a move aimed at reviving the station? Only time will tell.

Bootyful actress, Catherine Kamau aka Selina, has come out to disclose the reason for harboring loathe for her ravishing kid sister.

There is no doubt Selina is VERY beautiful. But her younger sister, Nyambura, is equally as beautiful as her elder celebrity sister.

In as much as Selina’s gorgeous beauty would attract any man to take a second gaze at her,Nyambura’s elegance may make you transfixed .

It is because of Nyambura stealing all the attention that made Celina dislike her. But not as an adult, it way back when they were only kids that she used to detest her.

With Nyambura celebrating her birthday today, Selina confessed her old repugnance that she used nurse.

Apart from her confession, the Mother-In-Law actress went on to shower her sister with praise admitting she adored her big heart and professing her love to her.

                            Nyambura

HAPPY BORNDAY TO MY LITTLE SISTER . I REMEMBER WEN MUMMY CAME WITH YOU I DIDNT LIKE YOU VERY MUCH COZ SUDDENLY IT WAS ALL ABOUT YOU. I ADMIRE YOUR STRENGTH, YOUR COURAGE AND THAT BIG HEART OF YOURS. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH NYAMBURA.

Two suspects have been arrested following the murder of a third year Moi University student yesterday morning.

According to a press release released by Professor Richard Mibey, the Vice Chancellor of Moi University, police have nabbed two suspects who are being held in Eldoret Police Station for further interrogation.

Charity Maina, a third year education student in the School of Arts and Social Sciences was found raped and murdered near privates rented hostels in the expansive Kesses-based institution of higher learning.

Her rape and murder sparked massive outrage from students who went on rampage, burning a police land cruiser that had arrived to ferry the remains of the student to the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital Morgue in Eldoret.

The students barricaded roads in the university and engaged the police in running battles, demanding the administration to explain why it has failed to offer enough security to the students.

A source from the institution reveals that tension still remains high as students demand to be released from the institution as learning cannot continue while justice has not been served to their colleague.

Here is the press release from the VC:

 

 

A student at South Eastern Kenya University (SEKU) in Kitui has been arrested after allegedly raping his University lecturer. The heinous incident happened at dawn while the lecturer was in the office.

The lecturer was rushed to Kwa Vonza Dispensary for treatment.

The penalty for rape is a minimum sentence of 10 years’ imprisonment, which may be enhanced to life imprisonment. According to Kwavonza Lower Yatta OCS David Terer, the student,Joseph Mbenge has been arrested and he is being interrogated by police in Kitui while awaiting appearance in court.

Very weird.

Lupita is perhaps the greatest sister one would ever wish to have. The way she has been specially treating her little brother is totally impressive and inspiring.

It’s not the first time she introduced her small brother, Peter Nyong’o, to the world of superstars. Last year, during Academy Awards, Lupita brought along Peter who got to freely mingle with A-list celebrities.

Peter even got the privilege of appearing in the historic selfie that incorporated Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Bradley Cooper (of American Sniper movie) among other Hollywood heavyweights.

Come this year’s Oscars, Lupita couldn’t leave her brother behind either, she took him with her to the red carpet event.

Being the good sister she is, Lupita used her fame and influence to introduce Peter to the world’s GREATEST pop superstar, Beyonce.

Peter and Beyonce made sure their meeting at 2015 Oscars goes down history book. They did so by taking a photo together. See the photo below:

Just introduced my brother to @beyonce. What are sisters for?! @nyongolaflame
