Former Tahidi High Actor Omosh Triumphs Over Alcoholism and Smoking

Former Tahidi High actor Omosh has revealed that he has triumphed over alcoholism and smoking through a newfound connection with faith.

In an interview with Mungai Eve, the actor spoke about his struggles with addiction and how his journey towards recovery has been intertwined with his spiritual awakening.

“God transforms you to a permanent person,” Omosh said. “Like right now, I am enjoying the life God has given me. If I knew this is how this side of God looks like, I would have reformed a long time ago.”

Omosh said that he regretted his past actions but recognized that God’s timing is perfect.

“I gave my life to Him early this year,” he said. “God hates a liar.”

The turning point in Omosh’s life came after the loss of two close friends, which prompted him to reflect on the trajectory of his own life.

“I realized I was messing up with my life,” he said. “I was so much into alcohol.”

Once a churchgoer, Omosh strayed from his faith, but his experiences led him back to the embrace of spirituality.

“I have gone to church recently,” he said. “I have been very prayerful and trying to fight alcoholism and smoking addiction but it was not working. My sister sponsored me to a rehab and that is where I learned about that.”

Omosh cautioned against judging those who battle addiction, noting that many regret their choices daily.

“Never judge a drunkard,” he said. “Most of them are regretting every day. My sister spent over sh200k to invest in me and misused that opportunity.”

Omosh said that his sister extended her support and offered him another opportunity for rehab.

This time, however, he made a resolute decision to steer clear of alcohol.

“My family and friend’s prayers have worked out for me,” he said.

Omosh’s story is a reminder that recovery from addiction is possible, even after years of struggling. With the help of faith, family, and friends, it is possible to overcome any obstacle.

Omosh reveals how his begging stunt has improved relationship between his two wives

Former actor Omosh aka Joseph Kinuthia already asked fans for forgiveness; and truth is, it’s time to let go rather than crucify a man; who we all know is in need of help especially due to his addiction.

Speaking during a recent interview, Omosh apologized for his begging free stunt; adding that his actions were done on a light note and were not meant to anger Kenyans.

Have you ever done something and wondered, ‘why did I do that?’ You even go ahead and hate yourself for doing it. You do something and feel ‘Oh my God, I wish I never did it?’ Reason being? I knew I had annoyed Kenyans. You do something, but you don’t think it would annoy anyone. I never thought Kenyans would get that angry; I thought they would take Omosh as a joker.

However things did not work out as planned as Omosh ended up getting backlash and insults from Kenyans.

Grateful for the positive outcome

Despite all the drama, Omosh says there was a positive outcome from his actions. How?

Apparently his wives got to sit him down after his begging spree; and for the first time the two got to agree on something. From what Omosh says is that they both expressed their disappointment in him for begging and not consulting them first. He said,

They were wondering why I went to beg, again, on national television without informing them of what I’d say in the interview. Even my friends were taken aback by the now-misunderstood message.

However having learnt his lesson the hard way, Omosh now says that his relationship with his wives has improved; and unlike before, the three get to agree on something it’s done – which shows growth. He went on to add;

Right now we are okay. I have learnt to consult them and listen to their advice

And I guess this is why he will be joining a rehab center this weekend.
