As comedian Eric Omondi pulled down the curtains on his bride-search show, Wife Material, he has left some people unimpressed, and many tongues wagging.
Today, the comic took to his social media platforms to announce Carol Kamweru (one half of the Kenyan pop duo Band BeCa) as the winner of the contest, and that he would marry her and bear children with him.
“CONGRATULATIONS CAROL @bandbeca You are an AMAZING woman! Beautiful Inside and out. I cant wait to spend the rest of my life with you and make beautiful babies. I am the luckiest man on this planet. To all the ladies who participated in the #WifeMaterial I can never say THANK YOU enough, We made soo many beautiful memories and it doesn’t end here. WE ARE NOW FAMILY and I hope you all make it for the wedding. Finally I want to say a BIG thank you to Kenyans for walking with me through this journey and for helping me get a wife. Asanteni sanaa. #WifeMaterial (sic),” wrote Omondi.
However, in his usual element, the Kenya Film Classification Board CEO Ezekiel Mutua was quick to castigate the comedian, terming his antics as immorality of the highest order.
He alleged that Eric Omondi’s recently launched studios in Lavington, Nairobi, were nothing but brothels where young girls were being sexually molested.
Mutua even urged the Directorate of Criminal Investigations to move in swiftly and arrest all the parties involved in the “criminal” activities.
“So there’s Corona but this fool has been kissing multiple girls and recording these videos in the name of comedy. Another morally bankrupt socialite is recording more videos teaching these young girls how to have sex with Omondi in the devilish mentorship program known as “Mombasa Raha” (sic),” he wrote on his Facebook page.
He added, “The facility in Lavington that was opened with hype ostensibly as a studio is nothing short of a brothel. It’s a place where girls are being sexually abused and degraded in the name of art. The fact that women rights groups are quiet when this is happening and the police have not arrested the perpetrators of these obvious crimes is evidence of how low we have sunk as a society.
“By the time we get tired and stop condoning this nonsense the damage will be too bad to repair. The DCI should immediately move into that brothel in Lavington and arrest the criminals doing these things to our girls in the name of art! (sic)”
John Mwasya, a netizen, wasn’t also impressed by Omondi. He wrote: “Good ol’ times fading away when we found love,wooed a lady,win her love and her heart not parade somebody’s daughters like fish in a market to select the best.A short while later i kuwe we rushed into this then pap!….separation.
Anyway congrats and wish you all the best in the lifetime commitment you are about to make (sic).”
