“I’d just be happier if they would buy new clothes that don’t have holes in them” Bob Collymore takes a dig at Sauti Sol

It’s not the first time Kenya’s most successful music group has come under attack for their choice of dressing; only this time round it’s Safaricom CEO taking a dig at them.

Sometimes in December 2015, Sauti Sol was labeled the new brand ambassadors for ‘Kick Malaria Out Of Africa’ campaign after they rocked mosquito net-like outfit at a concert at the Coast.

One year down the line, the singing quartet has once again been criticized for their choice of dressing. This time round it’s Safaricom CEO Bob Collymore who gave them a piece of his mind.

While responding to a question on the kind of music he listens to, Collymore revealed Sauti Sol’s music had a place in his heart but went to say that he had major issue with the group’s style of dressing.

“My list would not be complete without Sauti Sol. These young men make me so proud. They take their craft seriously and they are making waves globally. I’d just be happier if they would buy new clothes that don’t have holes in them, and not so tight,” Bob Collymore said.
