Eric Omondi Addresses Claims Of Missing KSh 500,000 From Ojwang’ Family Donations

Comedian Eric Omondi has responded to recent allegations from Albert Ojwang’s family that KSh 500,000 mysteriously disappeared from the M-Pesa account of Ojwang’s father, Meshack Opiyo. Ojwang’s uncle specifically claimed the missing funds were part of the money raised through Omondi’s “Sisi Kwa Sisi” initiative.

In an interview with NTV, Eric Omondi seemingly addressed these claims, attributing the situation to internal family wrangles during their difficult mourning period.

“There have been a lot of lessons learnt, we are learning as we move, and the issue with Meshack, the father of Ojwang, is a very sensitive issue because currently, they are yet to bury him, they are still mourning there is a lot going on within the family that we pray and hope they will solve,” Omondi explained. He added, “It is a national issue. There is a lot going on. I have spoken to the family and they have issues here and there.”

Omondi’s comments suggest that while he acknowledges the family’s concerns, he believes the reported disappearance of funds is linked to internal family dynamics rather than external swindling, emphasizing the sensitivity of the situation given their ongoing grief.
