Njugush dodges question about Wakavinye in the most slickest of ways

Timothy Kimani, popularly known as Njugush, put his trademark wit on full display during a live TV appearance on April 28, 2026.

The comedian appeared on KTN alongside fellow creatives Phil Director and Mammito Eunice, where the trio was expected to discuss Kenya’s growing creative economy.

Interview takes a personal turn

The conversation, however, briefly shifted from industry matters to Njugush’s personal life when host Leah Ngari addressed ongoing speculation about his relationship with his wife and longtime collaborator Celestine Ndinda.

“Njugush, you have been trending online and we just want to hear your side of the story… what’s happening between you and Wakavinye?” she asked.

Humor over headlines

Rather than confirming or denying the rumours, Njugush chose a different route — comedy.

With a playful smile and impeccable timing, he deftly redirected the conversation back to the topic of the creative economy, turning the moment into lighthearted humour that left the studio in laughter.

Drawing the line

By sidestepping the question with wit, Njugush effectively avoided engaging with the speculation, using humour as both a shield and a statement.

The moment stood out as a reminder of his comedic instincts, showing how he can maintain control of a conversation while keeping audiences entertained — even when the spotlight shifts to his personal life.
