Tag: Eric Omondi news

Popular blogger Edgar Obare is back at exposing celebrities from prevarication. Through his BNN account, the blogger has revealed that the gift that Eric Omondi received from Jimmy Wanjigi a few weeks ago; doesn’t actually belong to him. Jimmy gifted the sleek ride to Eric to help him in campaigning for next year’s presidential seat.

Blogger Obare shared photos of the car on his Instagram to prove his sentiments and wrote;

”Wealth is silent. @ericomondi ‘s gifted car from 2022 presidential aspirant Jimmy Wanjigi actually is/was owned by flamboyant businessman @hon._steve_mbogo”

Comparing photos of the Chrysler Crossfire from business man Steve Mbogo and Eric’s, it’s needless to claim that indeed it’s the same one. They bear the same number plate and color.

Steve Mbogo was previously named one of the richest men under 30 in East Africa according to Forbes; and definitely has love for cars.

Eric Omondi and Jimmy are now on the limelight after being exposed over the same. This happens just a few days after doubts also piled up on whether he really owns his home in Karen. He later on flaunted a title deed to prove that indeed he owns the home.

Eric invited Edgar at his Karen house; stating that he wanted them to talk. The blogger is not one to show up, especially after his exposé.

Eric Omondi’s house in Karen costing Ksh 141 Million has wowed netizens for the impressive outlook from the inside-out. The comedian claims that his 14 years of hard work and consistency expedited his ownership of the palatial home.

” This is what 14 Years of Consistency, Persistence and Hard work looks like. Welcome to the Official Residence of the PRESIDENT of COMEDY AFRICA. 19TH OCTOBER we change Everything from here.”

There’s no doubt that Eric Omondi is one of the most paid comedians in the country. Especially now that he decided to work with Wanjigi, it means more cash for him.

Omondi previously resided in Kileleshwa before relocating to the new multimillion mansion. The comedian further stated that he had only lived in the mansion for thee days by the time he showed off the house to the public.

Fake Ownership?

A fan alleged that Eric’s new home is an Airbnb and not his. Even though the house has already been labeled Eric Omondi’s name on the entrance; doubts have started piling up on whether he really owns it.

According to Eric, the picturesque home costed him Ksh 141 Million. He invited vloggers to check out the 7 bedroom mansion; where he would reside for the next 19 days to plan his strategy to change the country.

The multimillion wash wash scandal business that linked numerous celebrities allegedly  milking huge amounts of cash through unscrupulous means is yet to be forgotten. As a matter of fact, the business has been re-enacted by comedian Terence Creative; who has left netizens nostalgic over the issue that was slowly fading away.

The exposé was done by none other than popular blogger Edgar Obare; who would later find himself in big trouble over the exposé. His brother was shortly kidnapped and tortured to reveal Edgar’s whereabouts after the exposé. It was needless to say that the wash wash cartels were involved in the obnoxious act; that left Edgar in intense grief and a conspicuous silence spree.

To spell this in black and white, the cartels involved were evidently unhappy over the same; but comedian Eric Omondi feels like he was supposed to be included in the list of the unscrupulous business; since it involved the rich ‘big fish’.

While speaking on Glow With Makena YouTube channel, the comedian stated that he was unhappy after learning he wasn’t included in the list;

”I was so hurt when the list came out and I was not part of it. Siko aje kwa wash wash? Mnanichukua aje? Mnajaribu kusema mi si baller? Ilinihurt sana. So mi naomba hiyo list ingine mniweke at least. Ntakosaje kwa wash wash of all the people…”

The scandal saw Edgar Obare at loggerheads with a few celebrities like Jalang’o; who strongly refuted the claims that linked him to the latter. Eric’s sentiments of wishing to get involved is peculiar and would land him on the wrong ground.

With the general elections knocking, every aspirant is using all possible means to reach a wider audience and get known. Comedian Eric Omondi is currently the most followed personality in Kenya; with the highest following on Instagram.

For this reason, he is believed to be the deal when it comes to reaching a wide audience. He was recently involved in pushing the youth agenda; with the hash tag ‘fagia wote’.

This was meant to wipe out all the ‘old politicians’ who have been in the game for decades.

Eric Endorses Jimmy Wanjigi

After pushing the big hash tag for days, Eric Omondi did not meet the expectations the youth had; not even his fellow celebrities. Instead, it was a stunt meant to support Kenyan business mogul Jimmy Wanjigi; who is also believed to be ‘old’ in the game. Most expected him to be endorsing somebody young; or rather himself. At one time, we almost thought he could vie for the presidential seat.

Rapper Frasha Goes After Eric Omondi

For the latter reason, Kenyan rapper Frasha has expressed his disappointment at Eric Omondi. He took to his Instagram to throw shade at Eric over the same as he wrote;

”For once I thought @ericomondi was serious with the youth agenda only to find out that he’s the president of comedy for real. The youth should stop being used and fight for there own space .We need to stand with those who have serious youth interests at heart . @jimi.wanjigi as nothing new to offer the youth he’s in the same category with the rest of the presidential aspirants so kama yeye ndio solution ya #fagiawote2022 Sisi tutaanza na yeye .This is a new youth revolution. Will only support the youth agenda”

In addition to this, Eric’s celebrity friends also expressed their negative sentiments on their comment section. Seems like a good number of people are not happy with Eric over this.

Comedian Eric Omondi is approaching the ‘4th floor’. And at his age, he should probably be considering a serious marriage. Well, for him, marriage isn’t a priority and his age doesn’t bother him that much. The comedian had started his own show dubbed ‘Wife Material’ which was aimed at getting a wife for himself.

As we all known, the first season of the show was just a mind game that ended up as a prank. He later on continued to promise Kenyans that he will secure a wife in the 2nd season of the show. This too came to pass as he dissolved the show for some trivial reason other than Ezekiel Mutua’s claims of the show being too explicit.

Marriage A Scam?

Even though Eric is highly on demand by the other gender, he has recently disclosed that marriage is not his thing; at least not for now. Speaking on Mungai’s YouTube channel, the funnyman said that he is still focusing on his career and wouldn’t want to get caught up in commitment of marriage;

”Marriage and relationship ina require a lot of energy, time and commitment. But ile kitu nafanya sahi, na need a lot of focus. Na sisemi ati wife atakutoa kwa focus… I just feel like marriage requires that you give a lot of energy and time. And saa izi siezi ku multi-task. All my attention needs to be on my career right now.”

Eric continued by saying that he won’t marry before the age of 65.

”Before 65 sioni nikioa…. I think marriage has failed.”

Despite all this, Eric already has a kid with his baby mama Jacque Maribe.

‘Ujaluo ni gharama’. This is Eric Omondi’s slang that he often uses to classify himself as the extremely rich comedian that he is. The funny man has now divulged that he is a proud owner of two choppers; one for personal use, the other one for business.

Eric landed at the Luo Festival in Moran Lounge Nairobi in one of his choppers. He later on proceeded to an interview with Mungai Eve; where he gave the details about ownership of the choppers;

”Ziko mbili. Kuna ya biashara na hii ni personal… Hiyo chopper umeona hapo ni yangu ya president. Hakuna president in the whole world mwenye hana ndege. So people should not be shocked… It’s not a luxury, it’s a necessity…”

According to Eric, he bought the chopper one month ago; and will be using it often to travel around the continent.

Proving A Point?

Eric Omondi was among the few artists named by KFCB boss Ezekiel Mutua as ‘poor’ and pretending to be rich, yet they have nothing.

Omondi went ahead to flaunt millions of shillings  on his Instagram afterwards , just to prove him wrong.

This time, he has gone even bigger by disclosing that he owns two choppers. One chopper is estimated to be worth Ksh 350 Million; without including Ksh30,000 worth of fuel per hour.

Being the owner of two choppers means that Eric’s net worth is definitely something we should definitely research about.

Comedian Eric Omondi’s body transformation last year got everyone admiring his new muscular physique. In less than a year, Eric had already gained 25 Kilograms and built himself a body that made ladies salivate for him more.

Eric got netizens asking him to share the secret behind his impressive transformation- He answered saying he ate more and worked out more.

“Naturally, I hate food and I have very poor eating habits so I was ingesting, not eating. I was on a mission and it takes a lot of discipline to move from 47kgs to 72kgs. I had even begun a community, ‘skinny people united’ which I have since left but it takes a lot of discipline and time and that is why from January to February, I kind of disappeared from the public scene…”

This however, did not last as Eric’s fitness discipline hasn’t been consistent.

Back With A Bang!

Eric slowly reversed to his previous skinny body; which got his fans worried about his diminishing health. However, Eric has gone back to hitting the gym. He has posted a short clip on Instagram of himself in the gym and captioned;

”Back like we never left…”

We might witness yet another huge body transformation. But will this one last?

Comedian Eric Omondi is indeed among the few local artists who are making it internationally. Eric has made a name for himself over the years through his comedy. Tanzanians happen to be one of Eric’s biggest fans. The flamboyant comedian performed at one of Tanzania’s National Stadium located in the Temeke in July 17th, 2021.

Going International

The stadium was filled to the brim, with over 46,000 people attending to watch Eric’s performance. Having such a huge audience in a foreign country shows the huge fan base that Eric has.

Anyway, Eric Omondi was recently mad at KFCB (Kenya Film Classification Board) boss Ezekiel Mutua, for terming him as broke. The KFCB boss also stated that Kenyan artists are broke and all they do is show off; yet they have nothing. The comedian responded by flaunting notes worth Ksh 3 Million, spreading them around his bedroom and captioning;

”Tag Ezekiel na umwambie SHINDWE!!!!”

This time, Eric has divulged the millions he has made through his performance in Tanzania. He also added that the event costed Ksh 17 Million. Speaking on Mungai Eve’s channel, he stated;

”Hiyo event ime cost Ksh 17, 500, 000. Magufuli alinyosha ile ivi. Kila kitu unafanya iko on records. Kufanya ile event. Ile pesa Eric Omondi ame make after all that, kulipa sound, kulipa stadium, kulipa security… Alafu pesa ile imebaki ni Ksh 3.6 Million.”

Additionally, Eric challenged his fellow artists to fill a stadium like him and entertain over 46, 000 people. He claims that he’s the only African to ever achieve such a fete.

Eric Omondi’s popular show ‘Wife Material’ is yet to bear fruits for him in terms of getting him a life partner. Even though Season 2 of the show was dissolved due to reasons understood by Eric, he still remains optimistic about the third season of the show.

The witty celebrity had previously vowed to get himself a partner in season 2, but this came to pass after the dissolution.

Too Hot To Handle

According to Eric, one of the contestants became rogue and he couldn’t handle her.

”…Sadly, It seems #WifeMaterial2 was never meant to happen. But we can still say it happened in a way; actually twice. The show was to begin tomorrow as has been heavily advertised. But unfortunately that won’t be so… Unfortunately one of the Contestants went Completely and utterly “Rogue”. And despite numerous attempts to Control the situation; the atmosphere in the house has not been conducive for the show to continue. We say farewell to Season two. Season 3 will Start almost immediately.”

One of the contestants, Gigy Money, didn’t take the issue lightly as she responded to Eric telling him he wasted their time.

It’s Never Too Late

Eric Omondi has now promised yet again to get a wife and kids from Season three of the show. Speaking on Mungai’s YouTube channel, he discloses;

”…Lakini ila nimesema hii mara mob sana. Nimesema na haijafanyika. Lakini Wife Material itaisha na mimi nikiwa na bibi na watoto. And you can take that to the bank… Ile siku itafanyika hivi ntawakumbusha.”

Finally, Eric claims the show is set to begin soon and will have ladies from Ethiopia, Rwanda, South Sudan, Nigeria and Kenya.

Eric Omondi is one of the luckiest men, having mingled with different types of women from all over East Africa. He has had a variety of women to choose from his recently dissolved Wife Material show; but has not yet found ‘the one’.

Family Guy

The fact that he will be turning 40 years in the next few months has made him consider settling down. The comedian has expressed his desire to have a family and kids; and has promised to be serious about his Wife Material season 3. It’s hard for Eric’s fans to believe since he had promised the same in season 2; which of course, didn’t happen since he cancelled it. This time, he’s including women from ETHIOPIA, RWANDA, SOUTH SUDAN and NIGERIA in his show.

On a long Instagram post, Eric wrote;

”Every journey has its ups and downs. Season one of #WifeMaterial was almost PERFECT!!! Season two was a TOTAL DISASTER????????… Sometimes I sit back and ask myself what was the intention of this show, what was the original idea???????????…And then I remember the MAIN REASON. I was actually really looking for a wife to marry, settle with and start a family, then things happened and that’s life…

I will PREMIER Season three in less than a month… And you can take my Word, whoever wins this Season…I WILL MARRY and SETTLE WITH, THIS YOU CAN TAKE TO THE BANK!! Hata mimi nimechoka nataka Bibi na Watoto, Nataka familia…I mean am turning 40 in 9 Months????‍♂️…”

Will Eric Omondi live up to his words this time? Or will this be one of his plotted hoax?

Eric Omondi’s conspicuous weight loss was something that we’ve all been concerned about for some time. The comedian had many prospecting that he would go back to his previous slender physique. It took him almost a year to get into shape; and made a comeback with a well-built body any man could admire. His new shape even gave him confidence to challenge the OG- Khaligraph Jones in a fist fight. Of course, he was beaten up by the rapper.

The comedian has now taken to social media to blame his popular ‘Wife Material’ show for his tremendous weight loss. Eric claims that it has been hard for him to handle all the contestants ever since the premiering of the show. He had previously weighed 78 Kilos; which is currently at 57.

Promising to get back to his previous shape, he wrote on his Instagram;

”At the beginning of #WifeMaterialOne I weighed 78 KGs and was extremely muscled up???????? by the end of #WifeMaterial2 I am 57Kgs with diminished muscles(Handling 23 Women is not a joke). Now I have to get back and go all the way to 80 Kgs of PURE,LEAN MUSCLES before #WifeMaterial3 and maintain it forever…LETS GOOOO!!!????????”

Even though he cancelled Wife Material 2 for some trivial reasons; Eric is now poised to maintain his shape before embarking on the third season of his show. Just a matter of months before he unleashes his new body form. Handling women is indeed tough!

Seems like Eric Omondi’s highly anticipated show Wife Material season two was never meant to happen. Many things came up that led to Eric postponing the show a couple of times. Well, this time, the show is off for good. The premiering of season two saw some of the contestants exchange blows during a meet and greet; and some of them, including Eric, got arrested.

Utterly Rogue Contestants

From the look of things, the contestants might have not changed just yet. As Eric Omondi discloses, one of the reasons he has cancelled the show for good is because the contestants are ‘utterly rogue’. This is what fans actually wanted, just to make the show interesting; but Eric thinks it’s way too much to handle.

In a long Instagram post, Eric wrote;

”…Sadly, It seems #WifeMaterial2 was never meant to happen, but we can still say it happened in away, actually twice. The show was to begin tomorrow as has been heavily advertised but unfortunately that won’t be so… Unfortunately one of the Contestants went Completely and utterly “Rogue” and despite numerous attempts to Control the situation the atmosphere in the house has not been conducive for the show to continue. We say farewell to Season two. Season 3 will Start almost immediately.”

Contestants Unhappy

One of the contestants; Tanzanian musician Gigy Money was angry with Eric and wrote back;

”So Erick you call me here nitukanwe cos unapata deals na uwarekodi watu bila kujijua unatufanya sisi vituko, you know what? You will regret this and you will never forget your wives…”

Comedian Eric Omondi has announced he’s now ready to proceed with his wife material show, Season 2. Omondi had previously been banned from proceeding with his show due to explicit and un-authorized content. The allegations saw him and some of the participants arrested. The contestants had to go back to their respective countries and the show withheld.

Wife Material Comeback

Eric has been talking about premiering the show a couple of times; always giving a reason for procrastinating the show. However, this time he seems to be serious about the comeback.

”THIS SATURDAY AT WASAFI LOUNGE KIAMBU ROAD!!! THE OFFICIAL WELCOMING PARTY of #WifeMaterial2 Contestants. Come meet and Greet your favourite Contestant!!! LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!”

DAR ES SALAAM INCOMING!!! Coming to get my baby’s❤, Wife Materials PERSONALLY. ????????????????????????????????
@gigy_money_og @saymayah_ @suzan_official01 @biancakikii57 @kyler_jeycman

#WifeMaterial2”

WifeMaterial2 Will take Place in NAIROBI???? MOMBASA ???? KISUMU???? and BUSIA????. @wifematerials2

It’s also important to note that Eric promised to make it clean this time; just to avoid being at loggerheads with KFCB CEO Ezekiel Mutua. Fans are waiting eagerly to see how all this will unfold.

Eric has been spending the last couple of weeks advertising for various companies. His next focus is definitely Wife Material season 2.

The King of comedy in Africa Eric Omondi has once again proved to Kenyans that they know nothing about his show. The comedian had previously promised Kenyans that he would not script the show like he did on Season one. Seems like Eric did not live up to his promise.

Wife Material season 2 was filled with drama barely days after it premiered. The ladies participating in the show got arrested after fighting in a club where Eric had planned his birthday party and a meet- and-greet with Wife Material fans. He also got arrested shortly afterwards for running an explicit program without the proper license.

To show us that Wife Material Season Two drama was also part of the  script, Eric has written on his Instagram,

”And all of you guys actually believed these girls fought????‍♂️????‍♂️????‍♂️????‍♂️???????????????????????????????? When you hear me say #PresidentOfEntertainmentAfrica. Best Believe!!!! We are about to take over this CONTINENT!!! #WifeMaterial2 Resumes in two weeks. BIGGER!!! BETTER!!! @saymayah_
@kyler_jeycman
????????????????????????
#BattleOfTheNations ”

From the above information it’s evident that all the drama that happened in season two was just a hoax. Most people have reacted on the comedian’s post.

”Wah enyewe hii Kenya kila mtu anatubeba ufala kama gunia ya waru.”

Now that we know he’s also scripting this, we won’t have much interest in this.

Eric Omondi’s Wife material show season two is finally set to return. After his arrest, he promised his fans that he would bring back the show; this time, he would make it ‘clean’ and acquire the necessary documents to run the show. Even though not most people were supporting the show, the comedian decided that this would be the best platform for him to get a wife. This time, Eric has promised he will not script anything.

The comedian had planned to proceed with the show last week but had to postpone it because of the sudden demise of Tanzania’s president John Pombe Magufuli.

Those who were against the show said that it had explicit content and couldn’t be viewed by everyone. However, Eric made it clear that it’s not his job to restrict children from watching.

The show will now be back but with parental guidance (PG).

On his Instagram, Eric wrote,

”By now I assume that everybody understands that #WifeMaterial is clearly not a family show. We have all understood the show by now. As we prepare to bring back #WifeMaterial2 it is important to clearly state that this show is RATED PG 21+. Please prepare and take note accordingly????????????????????????????????.”

Let’s hope this time the show will be interesting like it was.

After being arrested for sharing unauthorized content, comedian Eric Omondi has revealed that he won’t stop airing his popular Wife Material show. The show, which had over 15 contestants, had been stopped by Kenya Film Classification Board CEO Ezekiel Mutua. The CEO claimed that the show had explicit content, which was inappropriate for viewership and hadn’t been licensed. He added that Wife Material didn’t have to be dirty to sell; and Eric agreed with him.

Wife Material Contestants Sent Home

The comedian dismissed the show for a while and sent home the contestants.

He has however said that the show will continue, but will now have clean content. In an interview, he said,

”And as I spoke with daktari and agreed that it’s quite basic and we’re all in agreement that I don’t have to be dirty to sell. So we’ll be avoiding obscenity. And as we’ve agreed with the board, the regional idea is quite an interesting idea and it shall continue. Bigger, better, and of course, cleaner.

And mine is just to say asanti sana for the support and for the understanding. Mbarikiwe sana”

The show was highly anticipated by netizens, some terming it as pioneering East Africa to the world. Others like Kenyan gospel artist Ringtone say that Eric doesn’t have respect for women and want the show to be banned.

The return of the show will definitely be interesting.

Eric Omondi’s  controversial Wife Material Show season two has been filled with drama since it premiered days ago. Matters got worse when the contestants started fighting in a meet and greet party set up by Eric. The ordeal captured too much attention, which saw Eric Omondi arrested.

It’s clear that Kenya Film Classification Board CEO Ezekiel Mutua is always on the neck of the comedian. This time, he accused Eric of producing un-authorized content without the license of KFCB. Less than 24 hours later, Eric has been released on 50K police bond. The President of Comedy Africa has now apologized over the content in his show.

On his page, he wrote,

”I have had a very long phone call with my very good friend Daktari Ezekiel Mutua and he is of the very strong opinion that #WifeMaterial does not have to be dirty to sell. I completely agree with him and I have sent him a personal apology. The intention has always been to entertain and not to offend and I’d like to apologise to anyone who was offended????????????The whole idea behind #WifeMaterial is to bring East Africa and Africa together through Entertainment…The Vision is to take over Africa and the Dream is to lift the East African and Kenyan flags to the World and that requires a rigorous and vigorous creative process. In order to compete Internationally we need to put our best feet forward. The creative process can be long and tedious and whenever a new idea is born it comes with a lot of teething problems. WE PROMISE TO BE BETTER AND DO BETTER????????????????????????????????????????????????

SIGNED

PRESIDENT OF ENTERTAINMENT AFRICA.”

It’s still not clear whether he will proceed with the show or not.

Eric Omondi’s Wife Material season two has began on an eccentric note. Three of Eric’s 15 Wife Material contestants spent the night in jail. During Eric Omondi’s party celebrations to introduce the contestants at Blend in Nairobi, a fight occurred among the contestants.

They exchanged blows and even went ahead and caused damage in the place. The act culminated the arrival of police at the scene. They were probably fighting over the comedian.

All those involved were however arrested and taken to the cell. In a video posted by the Big Tyme Entertainment CEO, three of her ladies are seen sitting down in the cell. All of them look sleepy and tired from the previous night’s ordeal, but are freed in a couple of seconds.

Most netizens on KOT reacted on the matter, terming it as a planned activity to draw attention. Eric Omondi had however cleared the air about the same and promised that he won’t script anything this time. What’s your take on this?

His Wife Material show season two has been anticipated by most. After unveiling it a few days ago, some thought of it as illegal and called for it to be banned. Some still encourage him and say it will be the biggest show in East Africa.

There’s definitely going to be more drama in the show. And I’m pretty sure most people are enjoying the thrill of it. Below is the video;
