Deputy Prezzo Riggy G called the media to his residence-I have no idea which one, as he has multiple residencies-and the man was reportedly planning on completing a new one, once he recovered the little cash that had been frozen by the government on suspicion it was stolen.
For last weekend's chat, Riggy G stepped out in a flowery shirt that revealed his girth, a solid base on which Kenya can build their future. I'm speaking figuratively, since now I understand he's a student of literature.
Only that Riggy G likes to focus on the past, especially the milestone on August 9, 2022, when he and Prezzo Bill Ruto were elected into office.
When he enacts this fact, as he did last Sunday, Riggy G twists his head at an awkward angle, opens his mouth so his teeth bare like fangs, before delivering his favourite soundbite: he and Ruto won the polls despite a biased media.
But Riggy G doesn't lose sleep over such matters; he is a "natural" man who speaks from the heart, delivering the sort of unvarnished truth some Kenyans might not be accustomed to, but which ordinary Kenyans find refreshingly honest.

Hear him: "Nobody will ever change me, I am natural. I will never change my language..." This natural man who speaks from the heart added that his speeches are aimed at ordinary folks who connect with him, and not the media. And how does he address his base without the media? Riggy G is just an interesting man, who gets better when he opens his mouth.
