Eric Omondi’s partner Lynn Njihia has embraced the role of a full-time mom for their daughter Kayla. Balancing motherhood with her career, Lynn prioritizes Kayla’s well-being.

“I want to be present for her,” she says, “but I’ll also continue creating content.”

Lynn gushes about Kayla’s strong bond with her father.

“She’s got Eric’s energy,” she beams. “Their connection is amazing to see. He’s become a softie, a whole new side of him!”

Kayla’s arrival has been a blessing. “She’s our little miracle,” Lynn says. Born prematurely, Kayla’s milestones hold extra significance for her parents. “Every day brings something new, it’s like watching a flower bloom,” Lynn adds.

As the “President of Comedy’s” daughter, Kayla enjoys the perks of having a famous dad. But more importantly, she’s surrounded by love from both parents. Eric and Lynn are clearly smitten with their eight-month-old daughter.

Comedian Eric Omondi has once again called out Nairobi Governor Sakaja over the recent ‘Kanjo’ harassment to hawkers and business people around the CBD.

Eric happened to be one of the witnesses on an operation by the Kanjos, where he claims they beat up women and mis-handled their goods.

Eric took to his social media to condemn the act, terming it as uncouth. He recalled an incident where one of the women was kicked on the stomach during the operation.

Sakaja Supports Kanjo

Upon seeing the videos recorded of Kanjos, Sakaja has now urged them to arrest those who record them while they work.

”Kwani mtu akifanya kitu mbaya anafaa aimbiwe wimbo? Order must be maintained. We want a city with order. Na hawa watu wa kuwa record, shika hao pia. That is obstruction of enforcement of justice. Do your work, do the right thing. What you’re doing is needed,” Sakaja said.

Eric’s Response

In response to Sakaja’s sentiments, Eric Omondi has now reiterated his statement, warning Sakaja on impeachment.

”Nairobi is not your House. WE WILL IMPEACH YOU. Nai Hai work. The Drainage Systems are not working, Doctors are Striking. Nothing is working. Your Priorities are Upside Down. Your Regime is the Worst in the History of Nairobi. Your Officers kicked a woman in the Stomach as I watched in broad Daylight what if she was Expectant. The BRUTALITY MUST STOP!!! We will RECORD THEM DAILY. CONTROL YOUR MEN or we will do it for you!!!,” Eric wrote on his Instagram.

Fans reacted to the post with most of them foreseeing Kanjos mistreating business people following Sakaja’s statement.

Kenyan comedian Eric Omondi took to social media (Instagram) to expose an incident involving Nairobi City County officers, known as “Kanjo.”

Omondi shared a video on Instagram depicting Kanjo officers forcefully apprehending individuals on the roadside. He witnessed the officers’ actions firsthand and expressed concern about their aggressive behavior.

Disturbing Encounter

The video shows a Kanjo vehicle parked by the roadside, with officers seemingly forcing people into it. Omondi confronted the officers but they drove away before responding.

Omondi described two distressed women who reportedly suffered mistreatment at the hands of the Kanjo officers. He emphasized their emotional state, mentioning one woman’s tearful attempt to recount the ordeal.

Demanding Action

Omondi directed his outrage towards Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja, urging him to take action. He demanded the release of the apprehended individuals and medical attention for the affected women.

Omondi condemned the alleged brutality witnessed, highlighting the plight of ordinary citizens struggling financially. He called for accountability from the authorities and emphasized the importance of resisting such acts of injustice.

Popular Kenyan entertainer Eric Omondi, has shifted his focus to activism, aiming to bridge the gap between unemployed youth and potential employers.

Through his Instagram platform, Omondi called upon unemployed graduates and aspiring entrepreneurs to attend a meeting on March 26th at the Blue Springs Hotel. He promised to connect attendees with job opportunities and support their business ideas.

“The response from graduates seeking work was overwhelming,” Omondi stated, “but there’s a solution! We’ve secured numerous job openings thanks to generous Kenyans.”

“If you are a graduate without a job come to Blue Springs Hotel Thika Road opposite Gardens City tomorrow. We are meeting at 8:30 am usichelewe!!! Iko kazi!!! Kazi iko!!!! We are going to provide employment and job opportunities to all our brothers and sisters. We have already acquired numerous jobs from Kenyans of goodwill,” he captioned the video.

Comedian-turned-digital content creator, activist, and philanthropist Eric Omondi has opened up about his absence from the comedy scene, attributing it to the lack of receptiveness among Kenyans towards humor.

In an interview with Plug TV media, Eric addressed the question of whether he still identifies himself as a comedian.

“Can Eric still be considered a comedian, or should we remove that title altogether?” the interviewer asked.

In response, Eric revealed his decision to distance himself from the comedian label, stating his disinterest in continuing with comedy. “At this point, Eric Omondi is no longer a comedian because there’s nothing amusing in Kenya,” he firmly declared.

Expanding on his stance, Eric pointed out the prevailing somber atmosphere in the country, which, in his view, made comedy irrelevant.

He stressed that given the nation’s circumstances, there was little to find humorous or laughable. “Nobody is in the mood for laughter; people are grappling with depression. In fact, I believe we should ban all comedy shows in the country. There’s no room for smiles or laughter. You can’t crack jokes at a funeral, it’s just not appropriate,” he asserted.

Reiterating his viewpoint, Eric underscored the seriousness of the situation, acknowledging the widespread grief and financial hardships faced by many.

“The prevailing mood in Kenya is one of sorrow, not conducive to jokes and comedy. Until things improve, until there’s a change, comedy is off the table. Who will find humor in these circumstances? Why? At what time?” he candidly expressed.

He challenged the interviewer to interact with random individuals on the streets, confident they would share his perspective on the absence of humor amidst the current challenges.

“IT’S WORLD ERIC OMONDI’S DAY🎂🎊.Happy 2ND Birthday Babe( Since life literally starts at 40😂). You are a Blessing,not only to our beautiful family that we created together but to the people’s lives you’ve touched. You’re the best thing that has ever happened to me.

Comedian Eric Omondi has refuted claims of being associated with the Illuminati.

In an interview with blogger Trudy Kitui, Omondi clarified that he is not a member of the Illuminati, contrary to widespread beliefs.

Omondi recounted how the rumors started during his time as a comedian on the Churchill Show. He shared a story about receiving a call from an unknown person seeking his help to join the Illuminati.

Despite trying to dissuade the individual, they persisted and even asked him to send money to facilitate their entry into the Illuminati. Omondi decided to play along, requested 50K, and instructed the person to bring a white goat and an additional 25K for further guidance. After receiving the money, he blocked the individual.

“That rumor has been there since I was on the Churchill Show. Someone called me during the day and asked me to help them join the Illuminati. I told them I didn’t know what the Illuminati was. I told them I’m not a member. They called me again at night, insisting I help them join the Illuminati,” explained Omondi.

“I told them I would help them join the Illuminati, but not to tell anyone. To join, you pay 100K, but for now, I want you to send me 50K, come with a white goat, and 25K, then I’ll tell you what to do.

And they sent the money. The money came to this phone of mine. If there’s money I’ve ever eaten, it’s that one. They called me twice; I told them they are very foolish. Later, I blocked them,” he added.

As Omondi considers entering politics, he urged young people to focus on hard work rather than entertaining the notion that joining the Illuminati would guarantee effortless success in life.

Comedian Eric Omondi has expressed his intent to intervene in the recent professional split between YouTube personalities Director Trevor and Mungai Eve.

“I wouldn’t call myself dad but I intentionally worked with Eve to grow online media. I believe my opinion in this case matters,” Omondi stated.

Omondi claims to have played a role in developing their online presence, suggesting a personal connection to their situation. He believes his perspective can be valuable in facilitating reconciliation.

“I had spoken and met both Eve and Trevor before the messy split and the issue is their friends. Ni watu kuingililia maisha yao,” Omondi said.

Proposed Intervention

Omondi plans to invite the duo for a meeting upon Eve’s return from Zanzibar, with the aim of resolving their differences and potentially reviving their brand collaboration.

He emphasizes his intent to contribute positively to the situation, regardless of the outcome.

Comedian and activist Eric Omondi has set the record straight on his family circumstances, clarifying a previous statement by his fiancée that she is his only “baby mama.” Omondi openly acknowledges being the father of two children, including media personality Jacque Maribe’s son.

In a recent Radio Jambo interview, Omondi expressed his commitment to fatherhood, affirming the possibility of living with his son from Maribe. He emphasized his responsibility and desire to be fully involved in the child’s upbringing.

This stands in contrast to a previous Q&A session on Lynne Njihia’s Instagram, where she claimed to be Omondi’s sole “baby mama.” This misinformation sparked confusion and prompted Omondi’s clarification.

The couple’s openness about their relationship, including their 19-year age gap, reflects their commitment to each other. While they currently have no plans to expand their family, Lynne’s previous “mother of one, daddy of one” statement now gains new context within Omondi’s wider family picture.

The public dispute between Omondi and Maribe regarding their son’s paternity has been ongoing, with past online exchanges adding to the complexity of the situation. Through his recent admission, Omondi takes ownership of his fatherhood role, potentially paving the way for a more constructive path forward, both for his son and his relationships with both women.

Despite his philanthropic endeavors to aid Kenyans facing financial hardship, comedian Eric Omondi has drawn a line when it comes to extending assistance to troubled music producer Magix Enga. During a recent interview, Omondi acknowledged Magix Enga’s plight but expressed hesitation in offering support due to the producer’s past claims of involvement with the Illuminati.

Omondi raised concerns about the credibility of Magix Enga’s request for financial assistance, citing the producer’s previous statement in which he openly declared his membership in the Illuminati. “I checked, for example, in the case of Magix Enga, there was a time he said he was Illuminati and that he said there was money there. How do I come again and tell Kenyans that this person needs help? Kenyans will not take me seriously when I come with a serious health issue,” Omondi explained.

In a January 2022 interview, Magix Enga made a startling confession, revealing his affiliation with the Illuminati. The music producer claimed that he joined the controversial group at the age of 23 in pursuit of fame and fortune.

Omondi’s decision to withhold aid from Magix Enga stems from his belief that supporting someone with alleged Illuminati ties could jeopardize his credibility as a philanthropist. He fears that Kenyans might dismiss his future appeals for assistance if he associates himself with individuals linked to such controversial organizations.

After months of anticipation, comedian Eric Omondi and his girlfriend, Lynn Njihia, have finally shared an intimate glimpse of their four-month-old daughter, Princess Kyla Omondi, on Lynn’s YouTube channel. This heartwarming reveal marks a significant milestone for the couple, who welcomed their little bundle of joy three months ago.

In the heartwarming video, the proud parents couldn’t contain their joy and admiration for their precious daughter. Lynn, radiating with motherly love, described Kyla as the most incredible blessing that has ever graced their lives.

Their deep emotional connection with Princess Kyla was evident as they introduced her to the world, their faces beaming with love and pride. Lynn, basking in her role as a mother, invited viewers to share their thoughts on who Princess Kyla resembles.

“You’re soooo perfect and adorable mama. Literally the best thing that has ever happened in mummy and daddy’s lives. We love you soooo much❤️. LEMME KNOW IN THE COMMENTS WHO YOU THINK KYLA LOOKS LIKE,” Lynne wrote on her Instagram, overflowing with maternal affection.

This joyous announcement comes after the couple faced the heartbreaking experience of a miscarriage in late 2022. Demonstrating their resilience and unwavering love, Eric Omondi surprised Lynn Njihia with an epic gender reveal party in July 2023, as captured on his YouTube channel.

The couple’s journey from sorrow to celebration is beautifully reflected in the public unveiling of Princess Kyla. Interestingly, Eric Omondi had playfully set a condition for revealing his daughter’s face – a joking demand of Sh50 million.

The reveal has been met with an abundance of love and support, as fans and well-wishers pour their hearts out on social media, showering Princess Kyla with admiration.

Popular Kenyan comedian Eric Omondi has announced that he will finally reveal the face of his daughter, Kyla Omondi, to the public on Thursday, November 23, 2023. The decision to unveil Kyla’s face comes after an anonymous individual agreed to pay a significant sum of money, which Omondi had previously stated as his asking price for the reveal.

In a statement released on Monday, November 20, 2023, Omondi expressed his gratitude to the unnamed individual for their generosity and willingness to support his family. He also acknowledged the public’s curiosity about Kyla and stated that he was excited to finally share her face with the world.

“I’m so grateful to the person who made this offer possible,” Omondi said. “I know many people have been waiting to see Kyla’s face, and I’m happy to finally be able to share her with the world.”

Omondi has previously spoken about his desire to protect his daughter’s privacy, but he ultimately decided to reveal her face in exchange for a substantial financial contribution. He has not disclosed the exact amount of money involved, but he has hinted that it is a significant sum.

“This is a life-changing amount of money for me and my family,” Omondi said. “It will allow us to provide Kyla with the best possible opportunities in life.”

The comedian’s decision to monetize the reveal of his daughter’s face has drawn mixed reactions from the public. Some people have expressed their understanding of Omondi’s financial needs, while others have questioned the ethics of profiting from a child’s image.

Regardless of the public’s opinion, Omondi is determined to proceed with the reveal. He has promised to share Kyla’s face with the world on Thursday, November 23, 2023, and the anticipation is building among his fans and followers.

Renowned Kenyan comedian Eric Omondi has announced that he will be revealing the face of his daughter, Kyla Omondi, on Thursday, November 24, 2023. This decision comes after an anonymous individual paid the stipulated fee of Ksh 50 million for the exclusive right to showcase the child’s face to the public.

In July of this year, Omondi, who has also taken on the role of an activist, made the surprising announcement that he would not be unveiling his daughter’s face on social media for free. He explained that he would be charging a substantial Ksh 50 million for the reveal.

“Revealing my child’s face will not be cheap,” Omondi stated. “In order for me to unveil the face of my child, I will need to be paid Ksh 50 million. Whoever offers that amount, even if it’s a newspaper, will be the ones to showcase her face. My child’s face is very rare and precious.”

Omondi jokingly remarked that he kept the fee relatively low, considering the challenging economic conditions facing the country.

The comedian has now claimed that someone paid the Ksh 50M just for the face reveal.

” Kuna bazuu amefika bei. Kuna mtu amewalipia kuona princess, 50M ya Kyla nakula tu polepole,

The decision to charge for the reveal of his daughter’s face has sparked a range of reactions, with some questioning the comedian’s motives while others expressing understanding of his financial needs. Regardless of the public’s opinion, Omondi has remained firm in his stance, emphasizing the value of privacy and the need to protect his daughter’s image.

All eyes will be on Omondi on Thursday as he prepares to unveil the face of his daughter, Kyla, to the world. The reveal, shrouded in anticipation and intrigue, is sure to generate significant buzz and media attention.

Kenyan comedian and activist Eric Omondi, has called upon Kenyans to join him in protests against the new fuel prices.

In a video, Omondi announced that the rallies would begin on Tuesday, September 19, 2023, outside Parliament buildings.

“We are going to start a revolution from this Tuesday. I’m calling upon every young man who disagrees with tax increases and the high cost of living we meet at the Kenya National Parliament on Tuesday at 9 a.m. Wacha kiumane… because it is not getting any better. They have started taxing school-going children,” Omondi said.

“I want to tell the President to do what you can do, do your best …enough is enough. We are going to bring revolution to your doorstep. One day you will realize we have 55 million Kenyans and less than 2,000 government officials,” he added.

Omondi’s call for protests comes after he and the co-accused were sentenced to one month in prison or a fine of Ksh10,000 for holding an unlawful assembly while protesting against the rising cost of living.

Omondi’s call for protests has been met with mixed reactions from Kenyans. Some people have praised him for speaking out against the high cost of living, while others have expressed concern that the protests could turn violent.

It is important to note that the right to protest is a fundamental right guaranteed by the Kenyan Constitution. However, it is also important to ensure that protests are conducted peacefully and within the law.

Comedian Eric Omondi has announced that he will no longer be pursuing his comedic cross-dressing persona.

In an interview with Nairobi News, Omondi said that he has made the decision to focus on philanthropy and helping those in need.

“I stopped cross-dressing until further notice. What I am doing right now involves women, children, and more, so it will be hard to see that character,” he said.

Omondi has been cross-dressing for over 15 years, and his alter ego, Divalicious, has become a popular character in Kenya. However, he said that he feels it is time to move on and focus on helping others.

“I will donate all my clothes and keep some for future use. I will be doing more charity work, and the fact that Kenyans have supported me, I am now ready to give back to society. There is so much they have done for me,” he said.

Omondi’s decision to end his cross-dressing persona has been met with mixed reactions. Some fans have expressed disappointment, while others have praised him for his commitment to philanthropy.

Omondi has said that he is not concerned about the reaction of his fans, and that he is simply following his heart.

“I felt selfish, and that is why I am now willing to serve Kenyans. Right now, my focus is on helping Kenyans through whichever means that is possible,” he said.

Omondi is a well-known and respected figure in Kenya, and his decision to end his cross-dressing persona is likely to have a significant impact on the country’s entertainment industry. However, his fans can rest assured that he will continue to entertain them in other ways.

Comedian Eric Omondi has hinted at the possibility of entering the political arena, and the role that political Azimio leader Raila Odinga and his wife Ida might play in his potential political career.

Omondi’s philanthropic efforts and activism have fueled rumors of political ambition, and he recently shed light on his discussions with the Odingas and his contemplation of a political future.

On September 11, Omondi met with Raila Odinga, a move that many interpreted as a significant step toward a political career.

Omondi expressed his gratitude for the meeting, saying, “Spent the day with Baba Yesterday and received too much wisdom. The future is too bright. There is a lot of Hope. Tomorrow looks good.”

The following day, on September 12, Omondi spent time with Ida Odinga, further fueling speculation about his political aspirations.

However, in an interview with Mzazi Willy Tuva on Radio Citizen, Omondi clarified that these meetings were not politically motivated but were rather focused on other aspects of life.

He pointed out that should he venture into politics he would have to consult Raila and Ida.

“Maneno ya siasa ilikuja sababu nilianza kusaidia watu, lakini huo muda ukifika nitarudi tena kwa baba na mama. Juzi tumeongea mambo ya biashara na ndoa,” Omondi explained.

Omondi also addressed the ongoing rumors about his potential candidacy for the Lang’ata parliamentary seat.

He acknowledged the significant support he has received from his followers and the encouragement to run for office, saying, given the effort he has put into pushing for change, he is seriously thinking about running for office.

It remains to be seen whether Omondi will ultimately decide to run for political office. However, his recent meetings with Raila and Ida Odinga, as well as his admission that he is considering a political future, suggest that he is at least open to the possibility.

Comedian Eric Omondi has defended himself against allegations that he is a deadbeat father.

Omondi, who was speaking during an interview with Oga Obinna, said he will give his side of the story in the near future. He claimed that he risks being taken to court if he discloses the truth now.

“I can’t talk about this story now, or I’ll be taken to court, but one day I’ll tell my truth about being a deadbeat,” he said.

This comes after Omondi’s baby mama, media personality Jacque Maribe, issued a “final disclaimer” to him over their son’s DNA test.

Maribe said she was tired of engaging in the “endless paternity discourse” and called out Omondi for dragging parenthood into his comedy.

“I’ve kept quiet for long. This liar called Eric should come correct and I come with receipts. I have resisted responding to this liar. He thinks parenting is part of his comedy. He lies about everything. Leave my name and my child out of your comedy Eric. I’m tired,” she wrote.

Omondi and Maribe met in 2012 after a staff party at their company, Radio Africa. They had a one-night stand, and Maribe later told Omondi that she was pregnant.

Omondi says he asked for a DNA test, but Maribe refused. He has been requesting a DNA test ever since, but she has continued to refuse.

The paternity of the child has been a source of speculation for years, and Omondi’s recent comments have only added to the controversy.

It remains to be seen whether Omondi will ever be able to prove his paternity, but his claims have certainly put the spotlight on the issue of deadbeat fathers.

In the meantime, Omondi says he is focused on being a good father to his other children. He has three children from previous relationships.
