“I was chilling with friends when I heard the ringtone of someone whose bike was being repaired. I suggested that we dance to the ringtone, and they refused but later agreed,” he started.
The TV and radio production student at the Kenya Institute of Mass Communication said he shared the video and was surprised after learning it had gone viral.
Kaseine weighed in on a petition by businessman Ben Ndolo to ban TikTok.
“Parliament should not consider the petition because people legitimately earn from TikTok. We should focus more on the benefits, especially for young people.
However, the platform should be regulated.”
He asserted that he had already started making money through the video platform while sharing his dream career.
“I want to become a continuity presenter on TV and radio.”
The young man disclosed that his major challenge in creating content was the occasional unavailability of his partners, forcing him to postpone shoots till they were available.
Kaseine advised jobless young people, saying there were many opportunities to earn income.
“There are lots of things you can do. For instance, you can showcase talent on TikTok. You can also go to a TVET and learn skills, then employ yourself.”
He concluded by urging his fans to:
“Continue supporting me and expect more great content.”
