Mwendo Mailu, a fake GSU officer who made a viral video claiming to have funded You Tuber Mungai Eve yesterday ended up in custody. This comes after Eve accused the fake GSU Officer for defamation.
“The video has serious untruth and defamatory statements. My client has made her brand through hard work and she feels whoever wants to jeopardize that must face the law.” Mungai Eve’s lawyer said acording to reliable source.
Although Mwendo Mailu pleaded for forgiveness, Eve Mungai did not accept his request claiming that the law must be follow.
However, Sauti Sol’s Bien has come out to speak concerning the matter. According to reports from reliable source, Bien has directed the blames to Kenya’s popular comedian that is Eric Omondi.
You have probably come across Eric Omondi’s comedy skits online that he imitates popular politicians. Commonly he usually immitates the current president William Ruto.
Following the arrest of the phony GSU officer, Bien blamed Eric Omondi, claiming that it was the result of the self-proclaimed president of comedy in Africa’s efforts to encourage people to utilize clout, gimmicks, and theatrics to market their content.
Commenting on Mailu’s arrest, Bien said that “This guy is a disciple of Eric Omondi.”
He noted that the approach preferred by Eric Omondi can only result in real people getting hurt and cannot build one’s career.
“This is what happens when you consistently push the agenda of empty showbiz and gimmicks. Real people get hurt.” Bien wrote.
Mungai Eve filed legal action after the video went popular on social media, and Mailu was arrested and jailed at Kileleshwa police station for processing and arraignment in court.
“The accused is facing charges of impersonating a police officer, defamation He has no record of the things he has accused my client of.” Eve Mungai’s lawyer said.
He went on and added that the equipment used by the fake GSU Officer had been confiscated and investigations are currently ongoing.
“We have confiscated his equipment they will undergo forensic tests as he awaits his appeal on Monday.” Added the advocate.
