Franklin Mark Gogo, popularly known as MC Gogo, has rapidly become one of the most sought-after MCs in the entertainment industry, both locally and internationally. Despite his burgeoning career in the entertainment world, many may not know that he holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Counselling Psychology from Kenyatta University, having graduated in 2023. In an interview with YouTuber Eve Mungai, Gogo mentioned that he might consider practicing counselling psychology later in life.

Journey to Becoming an MC

MC Gogo's career began unexpectedly at his home church in Dandora. After finishing high school, he volunteered to MC an event when the designated MC fell ill. He recalls, "Days to the event, the designated MC got sick and I volunteered to fill the slot. I did it so well and after the event I felt at home." This initial experience led him to start working for community-based organizations (CBOs) in Dandora, earning a modest Ksh200 for his efforts. His passion and dedication helped him gradually rise through the ranks.
