Gospel musician Bahati has been making headlines the past few days since his unseating of the president at the Jubilee party launch, an act that saw professionals, lawyers and political analysts alike, weigh in on the gravity of his act.
Following his appearance at the launch of the Jubilee party, and later meeting with the president at the State House for Youth Forum, it has now emerged that Bahati is running for a political seat, or so we thought.
For most of the weekend a poster showing Bahati all dressed up, asking people to vote him in for the position of MCA Makueni under the Jubilee party, has been making rounds much to the amusement of many.
It has turned out that it was all but a lie. The singer clarified in an Instagram post saying;
PLEASE STOP THIS???????????? Can Never be a Politician- Am Called to be VOICE OF THE AFRICAN CHILD.Na mwenye Amejenga hii Uongo Please Mwambieni BAHATI HAPENDAGI UJINGA!!! ????????????
In an interview at Kiss FM, he further clarified that if and when he vies for a political seat, it would be a government one and not a small position like MCA. But until then, the artiste continues to be the voice of the African Child through song.
