We are totally broken- Jalang’o speaks on ‘boys club’ saga

News
 Jalang'o and Edgar Obare(inset).

Comedian and Milele FM radio presenter Jalang’o has confirmed the existence of his ‘boys club’ after messages leaked from their WhatsApp group, causing backlash.  In a long Instagram post, Jalang’o responded to the leak which gained prominence on blogger Edgar Obare's Instagram page, revealing that it has cost them clients and broken families.

“The past two days have been very rough for me and my close friends because of the chats from our group…Through the group, we have achieved a lot in developing ourselves in different fields more so, investment. There are videos going around, I can assure you none of them is us. That we created the group to share women amongst us, that’s a lie. That day we were having a random boys’ chat and that’s how the photos you see came up,” he wrote.”

According to the MC, the boys are his childhood friends and contrary to popular belief, they didn’t form the group to showcase their exploits with women.

“People have blown this out of proportion and I can assure you we are totally broken. I have had people call me to encourage me and the boys and others calling to just condemn us, we have taken this as a lesson. There is a lot of malice and hate around it but we can’t go there now,” he wrote.

The comedian further said that they had rented an apartment not to play around but turn it into a studio for his YouTube channel.

“Rarely did anyone sleep at the apartment unless we had an overnight shoot or editing going on!”

Jalang’o further denied claims that he had been sent on compulsory leave, saying he had just started his annual leave.

Jalang’o further accused Edgar of harbouring ill-will against him, saying that blogger was simply seeking attention on social media.

“It is very evident that the blogger has a lot against me. He started last year when he said we paid girls to come to our event; that story died when one of the girls dismissed him. He then again struck in December last year. When I questioned him he blocked me and claimed that I wanted to kill him, he has since blocked me and continues to publish my stories all the time.

“The damage you’ve caused us can never be repaired Edgar and I assure you that if I was a bad person this would not have ended well. We will not sue or try to follow on anything and we will just let this pass but you’ve broken families, we have lost business and top clients have pulled out on us. It is ok and we understand them, no one would want to be around us now.

“Moving forward, we have learnt a lot from this, we accept our mistakes and ask for forgiveness to anyone we offended, we ask for your prayers and guidance.”

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

The past two days have been very rough for me and my close friends because of the chats from our wassp group, yes we agree that it was our group and its a group that has been there for soo many years and through the group we have achieved alot in developing ourselves in different fields more so investment which was the sole reason for the group. The boys are not just friends but people we grew up with from childhood,went to school together and achived alot together. On the chats youve seen , no one will tell you the genesis of the chats or the previous chats but they picked what they wanted you to see, we have been judged, abused and crucified and told that we formed a boys group just to have our pleasures. We will not defend ourselves but this was just another random boys chat in a wassp group, the difference between us and you is that your chats havent leaked out but I can assure you that in most wassp groups chats about men,women, money can never miss. People have blown this out of proportion and I can assure you we are totally broken. I have had people call me to encourage me and the boys and others calling to just condem us, we have taken this as a lesson. There is alot of malice and hate around it but we cant go there now. What really happened? Or whatx the truth? When Covid happen most of my friends closed office and I requested them to come help me build my YouTube channel, we took one of our appointments and turned into a fully fledged studio and thats where we have been shooting,occasionally we go to where our guest is or hire a place to work depending on guest request , we are always done by 2 or 3pm so we sit back and just relax have a boys time and chat, few friends have joined us too. We went a created one of the biggest online platforms and we already had clients buying space for marketing and advertising and we were already on a roll gaining upto 10k subscribers per week! Rarely did anyone sleep at the apartment unless we had an overnight shoot or editing going on! The lies are too many that we ourselves are reading this things on the blogs and just wondering whom they are talking about.

PART 2 The lies are too many that we ourselves are reading this things on the blogs and just wondering whom they are talking about. 1. I have not been sent to any compulsory leave, my 2 weeks annual leave began last week and ill be back on radio in 2 weeks 2. There are videos going around , i can assure you none of them is us. 3. That we created the group to share women amongst us, thats a lie. That day we were having a random boys chat and thats how the photos you see came up. It is very evident that the blogger has alot against me. He started last year when he said we paid girls to come to our event, that story died when one of the girls dismissed him, he then again struck in December last year , when i questioned him he blocked me and claimed that I wanted to kill him, he has since blocked me and continues to publish my stories all the time, My friends send me screen shots from his chats, he reffers to me as that married man he doesnt like....this year he tried to write another story from Alex birthday party but since he had nothing to write he let the story die. On my birthday he threatened to block anyone who posted me on their time line, and now even without asking our side he has gone ahead and had a field day, he is happy because he gets what he wants, Clout! Nothing else. What does it benefit you when you do all this ? The damage youve cause us can never be repaired Edgar and I assure you that were it that I was a bad person this would not have ended well, we will not sue or try to follow on anything and we will just let this pass but youve broken families, we have lost bussiness and top clients who have pulled out on us, it is ok and we understand them, no one would want to be around us now. We thank clients and friends who have stood by us by seeking to know the truth first. The truth will set us free someday for now all we have to do is try and put our heads up above this storm hoping it will soon pass. Moving forward, we have learnt alot from this, we accept our mistakes and ask for forgiveness to anyone we offended, we ask for your prayers and guidance. Meanwhile The show goes on! God bless you.
