He added that in Kenya, many people love jokes and laughter compared to Tanzania where the wheel power reigns in music industry as the main source of entertainment and hustle.
“Comedy ya Kenya imezeeka zeeka kidogo. Ilikuwepo kwa mfano wa Churchil Show yenye iliinua comedians wengi sana. Na hivyo, comedians wameheshimika sana.
