President Uhuru laughs at Jalang'os joke

Double Bigwa awards winner MC and comedian Jalang’o cracked President Uhuru Kenyatta to tears last weekend when they met at a wedding function held in Karen.

The two shook hands, posed for a selfie amidst laughter from the selected guests who had been invited for the high-profile ceremony.

“I thanked Uhuru for being passionate about art and for supporting the youth and also told him that I will be vying for presidency in 2022. That is what got him laughing. It was a cracker,” Jalang’o told Pulse.

“Well, I am a Raila man but when the President calls, you must answer. It was one of those emceeing events that make big statements that you are really the best there is,” he added.

The wedding was between Chemeli Chumo and Kevin Oduor, two lovebirds who met on Facebook in 2009. Chemeli Chumo is daughter of Kenya Power managing director Ben Chumo.
