What Diamond Did For Eric Omondi Will Leave Kenyans Elated
Lately, Kenyan comedian-turned-singer Eric Omondi seems to have forged a formidable relationship with celebrities from across the East African region and more especially the Diamond Platinumz family.
It was early this year that Eric Omondi went ahead and did a remix of Shali Martin’s Rafiki Pesa song using beats from the Tanzanian maestro’s Number One hit, a remix that was received well in the region’s confines.
Eric was at hand to welcome Diamond’s wife, socialite Zari Hassan of Uganda, when she jetted into the country for the Art of Luxury event at the prestigious Skylux Lounge early last month.
Then, Zari showered accolades on Eric, exchanging pleasantries at the expense of Chipukeezy who had publicly declared his love for Zari.
And over the weekend and of course the holiday that was on Friday, Zari hosted her Zari All White Party in Tanzania and among those who were invited and of course performed were Eric Omondi.
It was here that Eric shared the stage with East Africa’s all-time hits maker Diamond Platinumz, a close ally to Eric lately.
And boy, Diamond never hesitated to lavish praise on Eric, telling the blissful crowd how the Kenyan celebrity has defied all odds to become one of Africa’s finest comedians.
