Churchill has been accused of not paying his comedians well and exploiting them for his own gain.

However, one of his former comedians, Paul Ogutu Wakimani, has come out to defend him and share one of the best moments they had with him.

How Churchill rewarded his comedians

Wakimani revealed in a recent interview with Plug TV that Churchill once surprised all his comedians with money and car gifts.

He said that Churchill called them for a meeting in Lang’ata and asked them to choose what they wanted him to do for them.

“Some people asked for cars and they were told to step aside then another section asked for money so they could invest it. Then he wrote our names on a piece of paper and divided the two groups.

He then gave those who had asked for money KSh 300,000 each to go and invest in their respective villages. Then those who wanted cars were told to go to the showroom and pick cars of a certain amount. None of us has ever said the story,” Wakimani said.

Why did Andrew Kibe praise Churchill?

Separately, Andrew Kibe lauded Churchill for always being at the top of the game in the comedy industry.

Kibe said Churchill may not be the best comedian in Kenya but his style has made him the best and irreplaceable.

According to Kibe, the legendary comedian runs the comedy show and he is the only one who can invite people from outside the country to attend his shows.

"Look at somebody like Churchill, we don't even know what he studied but Churchill every time he has a show imechrome, he is not even the best comedian but he is the best at what he does and nobody has ever replaced him, nobody can replace him. Churchill is running the comedy in Kenya. Churchill can invite people from outside of the country," he said in a video on his Instagram page.
