MC Jessy Reveals He Spent Ksh 58 Million In His Political Campaign

Comedian Jasper Muthomi, popularly known as MC Jessy, has opened up about the significant financial investment he made during his political campaign for the Imenti South parliamentary seat.

Despite ultimately losing to the Jubilee Party’s Shadrack Mwiti Ithinji, Jessy disclosed that he spent approximately KSh 58 million on his campaign. In a new interview with SPM Buzz, Jessy underlined the value of funding and careful planning in the political sphere.

He stated that his campaign spanned 12 months and, while he didn’t spend billions or even half a million, the financial commitment was substantial and personally felt.

“I campaigned for 12 months. My friends supported me and I didn’t spend KSh 1 billion or even half a million. But I spent money. My pocked felt it. I used about KSh 58 million. A campaign requires strategy. I lost it to the candidate who was smarter than me.

I was competing with a 71-year-old billionaire. Somebody who has vied for the seat four times and this was his first time. Perhaps he just beat me this time due to sympathy and not manifestos and strategies. His money also helped him because he spent 10 times what I spent,” he said.

Jessy’s revelation is a reminder of the high cost of running for political office in Kenya. It is also a reminder of the importance of strategic planning and resource allocation in political campaigns.

MC Jessy turns a year older

It can be a challenge finding just the right words for someone when they are celebrating their birthday let alone yours. But what a better way to celebrate this big day, birthdays like the holiday season, come around just once a year, making them the perfect time to see how far you’ve come.

On the same post, MC Jessy went on to add;

MC Jessy celebrates birthday

Without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement, and success have no meaning. In between the last birthday and this one, there has been a significant growth that saw Jessy Junction and Jessy Foundation coming to life.

Drive behind success

Having worked hard his entire life, MC Jessy says he not only perfected the art identifying and creating opportunities; but explored them too and now – look at how far he has come.

On the same post, the popular Churchill show comedian went on to add;

Napoleon Hill once said- “When your desires are strong enough, you will appear to possess superhuman powers to achieve.” But it’s all about opportunities And opportunities don’t happen, you create them.

And in conclusion;

The desire to create Jessy Junction, the desire to have a foundation and many more. Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity. That has always been the force behind what I do. Celebrating a year older. ????????????????

Ricca Pokot stuns in school uniform

A greatly pained Pierra Makena admitting that every parent should by now understand how it feels, for your child to outgrow newly bought uniform that was very expensive.

They don’t fit no more…. kids grow so fast. Now what do i do?????? ????‍♀️????‍♀️????‍♀️????‍♀️,” she questions.

Why Betty Kyallo’s first major comeback on TV has been the subject of controversy

It is interesting how despite the number of years one has spent before the TV screens and the fluency and tranquility they have naturally exhibited, can still see them have stage fright regardless.

Betty Kyallo has made a comeback on our local TV screens. Funny enough, it is none other than her first home, KTN where she cemented her expertise in the media field before they clashed and bid each other goodbye.

Also read: Comedian Njugush and Betty Kyallo listed among 100 most influential young Africans of 2020

Means home will always be home and despite the differences, a common ground can still be established.

Her graceful comeback

So the beauty graced our TV screens over the weekend to launch a charity programme dubbed Jenga Jirani alongside popular media personalities MC Jessy and Fareed Khimani and Pastor Njugush.

That is where the drama began.

Betty Kyallo TV comeback

So the four introduced the programme to fans, tried establishing common ground and bonded Live on Camera but the turn of events soon after has left fans speculating of a possible union.

Fans believe the bond between Betty and Jessy during the event had gone a bit too overboard, one would actually mistake them for hommies since way back in their childhood.

Betty Kyallo and MC Jessy

They looked so comfortable around each other, sometimes the beauty would shy off when the MC looked straight into her eyes, something that has raised speculations.

According to fans, they would not mind seeing the two establish a warmer bond past their friendship and maybe even become a couple. Plus, they believe MC Jessy would make a good ‘budesko’.

Betty Kyallo and MC Jessy screen chemistry

Plus, it is interesting how the two were the only ones who seemed to have received a memo on the dressing code for the launch. The other two looked a bit caught off-guard.

Anyway, forget the chemistry between Jessy and Betty.

Hawk-eyed fans could not help but notice the short thigh-high dress Betty had won to the occasion that kept pulling back up every few minutes and it did not leave such a good image of the mother of one.

Betty Kyallo and MC Jessy screen chemistry

It has been 5 months since the screen siren was last on air, since her untimely exit from K24 TV after a two-year stint, having left her first home, KTN in July 2018.

“I gave up everything for a man who later betrayed me,” Kamene Goro’s regrets after getting married aged 23

Nothing ever broke Kamene Goro like her first serious relationship with a Tanzanian mogul who instead took her for granted.

The 28-year old started her professional journey as a lawyer before sneaking into Broadcast Journalism which she felt spoke to her more.

According to her dad, a career in journalism was unheard of. Forcing her to take up Law which she did but soon as she was done, sneaked into TV without her dad’s knowledge.

Kamene Goro

At the time, the lass had landed a prime job at Ebru TV then bang, showed up a man who she believed was her everything.

Kamene ties the knot

Barely aged 23, Kamene eloped to Zanzibar with her man, ditching her job at Ebru, got married and started living in Tanzania with her new husband.

Kamene Goro and her then 50-year-old lover

“I knew it’s the person I wanted to be with. I knew what I was doing. He was a great guy but with despicable behavior. I left my job, family and everything to be with him. I was happy to be his wife,” stated Kamene.

Years later, she introduced her man to her parents who did not like the guy but Kamene was not about to give up her man, forcing her parents to just bless their marriage.

Curvy babe, Kamene Goro

Unfortunately, hardly had the young couple started ‘living the life’ that the guy showed some uncouth behavior.

“It was a very tough relationship. I was very angry with the things he was doing. He stepped out a lot and it was detrimental for me. I could not understand how I left my career, country, family, everything just to be someone’s wife and this is how he pays me back.

Popular radio Queen Kamene Goro

So one day, at midday, she packs up everything of hers, knowing she would never return to that house before flying into Kenya. A day later, her husband calls to tell her “we can’t be together anymore.”

And that was it! Kamene nearly went crazy. That was the last time the two ever communicated. Kamene had to start her life from square one again. Have a listen:

But forget the dressing. Just how the jolly media personality would swing his neck back and forth and perfectly get into rhythm with the the Kenyan Maasai men was spectacular. His entrance to the occasion was beautiful, no lie!

https://www.instagram.com/p/CFojArPDCSA/

Known for his natural accent and his boast for having come from the Ameru community, I kid you not, at one point you’d think he lied about his ethnic background because he does it so well, despite his heavy-built body.

Even how he holds onto his rungu, I mean, it never got any better!

MC Jessy with Maureen Waititu

From rags to riches: Why MC Jessy owes it all to Nameless

Stories are there to be told, pasts that were not all glossy but pasts that we look back at and remain grateful to those that held our hands as we slipped off the edge and told us it can still get done.

Let’s get straight to the point. One of today’s widely celebrated comedians, MC Jessy tells of his past – when he would raid closets and take off with clothes because times proved too hard for him to fund the basic need.

Pretty emotional, the Churchill Show host unearthed a throwback photo of himself wearing the same T-shirt won by Nameless before admitting that he stole it himself.

Today I just want to appreciate one person who has seen every step of my life.

Award-winning Kenyan comedian, MC Jessy

At the time, the kid could only afford 2-3 T-shirts and your guess is as good as mine, you can wear these shirts only so many times, before people mark you with them.

Also read: MC Jessy set to give Jalang’o a run for his time and money after unveiling next big project

So, Jessy would take to Nameless’ closet and bag himself whatever he needed for his survival – ofcos with the artist’s permission.

At one point of my life when I had 2-3 t-shirts to wear,this man @namelesskenya allowed me to raid his closet and pick anything I wanted.

Kenyan artist Nameless born David Mathenge

Telling of his story, the popular TV personality revealed he would depend on blue-collar jobs from one of his friends just to drop something into his stomach.

How they met

So, Nameless and the MC met through this friend of Jessy’s who would work on the musician’s dreadlocks.

I used to be mtu wa mkono for this good friend of mine Juvinaris Chalo (extreme left). We used to go and roll dredi za Nameless and that’s where we knew each other.

MC Jessy & Nameless throwback

But never did Nameless ever show Jessy contempt for his kind of life. Instead, born David Mathenge, would readily offer a lending hand to MC Jessy’s needs and this is something the comedian lives to remain grateful for.

If there’s one generous family I have come across is the Mathenges. @wahukagwi I still miss zile Tumbukiza zako ????Thank you for believing in me.

Celebrity couple, Wahu Kagwi and Nameless

Impressed and still humbled that he assisted where he could, a dear Nameless commented:

Buuuda!!hii pesa imekusaidia ????????????…blessup my brother!!!

Today, Jessy drives the kind of cars he wants and lives a much better life than his past.

Njoki Chege to MC Jessy: Don’t insult your audience, you are who you are because of them

Comedian MC Jessy sparked uproar when he publicly shamed a man old enough to be his father during Churchill Show live recording in Nakuru.

The comedian made an unpleasant joke about the old man which didn’t go down well with many people, he directly referred him as a sponsor and suggested that he is ugly.

MC Jessy was forced to apologize to the old man after facing criticisms on social media. The Churchill Show comedian admits his joke was in bad taste.

Never insult your audience

Nation columnist Njoki Chege has come out ‘teach’ MC Jessy some manners about treating audiences with the respect they deserve.

“The greatest lesson I have learnt as a columnist is “never offend your readers” — a lesson I got from a former friend. It is a lesson that everyone in the media business ought to learn; don’t offend your audiences in either of these two ways — by insulting them or by insulting their intelligence. The audiences (readers, viewers and listeners) are much more intelligent than we in the media give them credit for,” wrote Njoki Chege in part.

Njoki insists that the old man didn’t deserve to be shamed that way. The scribe reminds MC Jessy that he is what he is today because of his audience.

“A local comedian is giving a joke on how women should forget their obsession with handsome men and give more attention to ugly men who have a more “personal” face.  I feel sorry for the old man. He did not deserve to be publicly shamed for his looks nor be falsely accused of being a “sponsor” – jokingly or otherwise. You do not make the audience your joke; neither do you approach them with such a condescending attitude. You are because of your audiences,” wrote Njoki.

Njoki is also unsatisfied with MC Jessy’s apology, she also calls on the Churchill Show’s producers to issue a public apology on the incident.

“The legal ramifications of such televised embarrassment aside, I think whoever runs the show needs to publicly apologise to the mzee. A public embarrassment calls for a public apology and an avowal that such a thing will never happen again.”

The Nation columnist also apologized to her readers about previous columns that offended many people, especially Subaru owners.

“Finally, let me take this opportunity to unreservedly seek forgiveness to any reader who read any of my columns and felt offended. We are because you are, dear readers.”

Forgiveness

MC Jessy was forced to apologize to the old man after facing criticisms on social media. The comedian admits his joke was in bad taste.

“Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future. On behalf of The cameraman, producer, Churchill Show family and I, We want to take this opportunity to sincerely apologize to Mzee Achoka, his family and Kenyans in general.
I don’t have any excuses. I take full responsibility for the production of this episode that might have gone in bad taste. I’m really sorry it happened. In future I promise it won’t happen again,” wrote MC Jessy.

“Reality is everything. You don’t have to have a social media life to survive. Kama wewe ni mtu wa mutura kula mutura. No one cares. Mi naishi life yangu huku kinoo. When I realized that I, nikasema hakuna pressure,” he said.

Be you

He went on to add that celeb should always be comfortable in their skins like him and able to live their lives. He congratulated Vera and Huddah for their recent rebrand that has seen them start business.

“Live your own life. Look at huddah, she changed her social media profile to market herself. Now she has huddah cosmetics on her page. That is wisdom. Also vera has done the same(selling her new salon vera sidika beauty parlour).” he said.

There is no doubt that MC Jessy is a funny man. For years now he has managed to entertain Kenyans through the Churchill show and I bet fans love him too.

The comedian however left many talking just recently after sharing an embarrassing photo of Churchill on his Instagram page. Apparently the photo had been making rounds on social media before MC Jessy decided to get his hands on it too.

However, from how it looks seems that it was not as funny as he thought since he later pulled it down. Not quite sure whether it upset his boss or the comments left under it forced him to delete the photo.

It is quite surprising to see MC Jessy pull such a stunt but below is the photo he shared causing a stir on his social media page.

MC Jessy and Churchill’s relationship

The two have been long term friends for years now. They both shared a similar dream that saw them come up with the Churchill comedian show helping new talents in the country.

Though we rarely see the two together, I bet they spend a lot of time together away from Cameras.

#Tbt: Throwback photo of MC Jessy in a ‘tumbo cut’ that will daze you

It’s throwback Thursday and MC Jessy’s photo has to be today’s highlight as he has left many gasping for some air after he shared a never before seen photo from his childhood.

In the photo taken probably 20 years ago the Churchill show host and comedian is seen wearing a pair of baggy jeans which he paired with a ‘tumbo cut’ or rather what kids from this generation refer to as a crop top.

Looking at him – I think that he had no idea that one day he would end up being a popular celebrity in East Africa and among the funniest comedians Kenyans have come to see on their TV screens.

He uploaded the photo through his gram captioning it to say;

#TBT Kwenye tumbo cut na savco jeans. Nilikuwa Homie I say??

MC Jessy

This photo is clearly a testimony showing that despite the humble background – a person can become anything they wish as long as they work hard at it.

MC Jessy talks about his life as a shamba boy at an MP’s house before the money and fame

Churchill show’s cohost MC Jessy aka Jasper Muthomi did not turn into a celebrity overnight. He struggled for long before he got where he is today and this is something he has always been open about this.

MC Jessy

What we didn’t know is that at some point he was a Shamba boy at an old friend’s house. Speaking during an interview he said that after completing high school he happened to bump into an old friend who hooked him up with a job at his (friend’s) father’s house who at that time was an MP.

Having no experience with the city life he had no choice but to work hoping that one day he would make it in life. Well, looking at his life now there is no doubt that he has achieved more than he could have asked for.

The comedian is a living testimony that any body anywhere is capable of making it life despite the situation they might be facing.

MC Jessy opens up about Churchill Show comedians being underpaid

Claims of poor pay has bedeviled kenya’s most watched comedy show – Churchill Show since early last year when a handful of comedians openly protested.

YY announced he was quitting Churchill Show sometimes in May 2016 indicating that all wasn’t well with the popular comedy show.

Fresh allegations of poor pay surfaced once again in April 2017 when Emmanuel Makori Nyambane alias Ayeiya Poa Poa passed on.

Former Churchill Show comedian Rapcha the Sayanist was quick fire salvos at Daniel Ndambuki accusing him of underpaying comedians, he claimed that Ayeiya Poa Poa had died a poor man thanks to Churchill.

Well, MC Jessy has finally addressed the persistent allegation that just won’t fade away; speaking to Word Is, Jessy categorically stated that Churchill Show offers comedian far more value than the pay package that portried them in bad light.

“They come while they are fresh and some don’t even have the money. Let’s take an example of MCA Tricky. He came the way he was and he is great today. Comedian YY came the same way and he is good right now. Eddie Butita came from Kariobangi and now he is doing international shows. If you are coming there to look for money you will fail, but if you are coming for destiny, you will succeed. The money aspect can’t even be discussed because you can’t even quantify to give a value for them when it comes to money, but their worth is determined by how they live their life, not how much they earn,” MC Jessy said.

He also responded to Rapcha the Sayanist’s attack on Churchill;

“Alikuanga Churchill zamani, so hayuko… That was his opinion, but you need to look at the results, kwa sababu mti unajulikana na matunda yake. I went to Churchill Show, see my life now. It is the same way for MCA Tricky, David the Student, Professor Hamo, Chipukeezy, Eric Omondi and the rest who joined the show.”
