Jaguar Turns Down Bouncers Offer As He Tours Mathare (PHOTOS)

Most run-down neighbourhoods are associated with insecurity and rowdy thieving bastards. And that’s why you see most VIPs are often flanked by 100s of men in black when they tour ghettos.

However, for singer, philanthropist and recently appointed NACADA board member, Jaguar, he doesn’t need no security when he decided to pay a visit to blighted areas.

Yesterday, the singer made his way to Mathare where Gospel singer Bahati was holding his homecoming concert. To most, they would expect Jaguar to arrive in a convoy and surrounded by security, like he does whenever making a public appearance.

He nonetheless shocked many when he drove himself to Mathare in his latest machine, Range Rover 2014, with an unidentified man; we aren’t sure whether he was security or just a friend.

Upon arrival some bouncers offered to give him security as he walked to the venue but he declined and was overheard saying, “Hawa ni watu sihitaji security hapa” as he smiled away.

His arrival at the concert caused commotion as the crowd surged forward to greet him and even forced Owago, the MC, to pause and recognize Jaguar’s presence saying, “Rais wa watu wa kawaida amefika”.

Contacted, Jaguar said he doesn’t need protection from people who elevated him to where he is. And so there was no need for him to walk with bouncers when he was at Mathare.

After the concert, Jaguar also attended Size 8’s mum fundraiser at CITAM.
