Kenyan renowned comedy trio; KJ, Walter Mong\u00b4are and Tony Njuguna have hinted on an upcoming comedy special as their final comeback for their popular show.<\/p>\n

Back in the days, Redykyulass was known for its comedy stints which eventually saw it grow popularity and deeply establish itself in the Kenyan art of comedy.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately times changed and the comedy scene grew much bigger, with the show facing competition from young and upcoming talents before it became history.<\/p>\n

However, speaking to Mwalimu Churchill during a special edition on June 7, John Kiarie alias KJ revealed plans to get back on stage for a final kick off, if his colleagues agree.<\/p>\n

Why not. It will be awesome. A quick one-off show, we\u00b4ll talk to Walter and Tony and if they are ready to step into their Redykyulass roles I\u00b4m in.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Background<\/h2>\n

One thing Kenyans will forever remember of this trio was just how brave these individuals were to mimic politicians and even the late President Moi who was a no-nonsense leader.<\/p>\n

But they did it and the President enjoyed their creative productions, which only propelled the comedy show further.<\/p>\n

Redykyulass first went on air in December 1999. At that time, the political scene was very heated and here we were with a show that had an impersonation of the President. So NTV took it and before we got to episode 4, it became the most-watched show in Kenya\u00b4s history.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

However, as fate would have it, the trio later disbanded and pursued different paths in life with KJ currently the Member of Parliament (MP) of Dagoretti South.<\/p>\n
