Fired Hapa Kule Actors Receive Help from an Unlikely and Powerful Source

A large part of the ‘Hapa Kule News’ cast was sent home recently. The fired cast mates claim that they were shown the door after they demanded a pay rise.

One of the peeved fired actors revealed that they got paid 8000 Kshs per month but their employers Protel Productions had promised a pay rise of up to 8,000 Kshs per episode in season 8 which translated to 32,000. Meaning that their salaries would have quadrupled. But this was not to be as their pleas for a higher wage resulted to them getting axed.

Those shown the door Mang’ondu, Ras Njoro, Afande Supu, Makulukulu and Muthiri are now receiving help from an unlikely source. Senator Boni Khalwale and Mutula Kilonzo have all intervened judging from some tweets, which you can check out below.
