Comedian Mtumishi fight with his mother escalates after rejecting reconciliation live on radio

The attempts by media personality Massawe Japanni to make amends between former Churchill show comedian Gilbert Barasa, also known as Mtumishi and his mother backfired after she refused to speak with him.

To further discuss Mtumishi’s family struggles, Massawe invited him to her show on Thursday, November 16, 2023.

The comedian revealed all of his feelings as he described how his mother broke his heart and how his family frustrated him.

It was challenging to try to patch things up between them after Massawe contacted Mtumishi’s mother.

Mtumishi’s public display of their filthy linens angered the mother.

“Kwa nini alinipeleka akaniweka kwa ulimwengu mzima? Sitaki kuongea na yeye saa hii! Kama anataka tuongee, akuje nyumbani tuongee mbele ya watu wetu!” the mother argued.

She challenged the comedian to go and uncover the witchcraft allegations he allegedly labelled against him.

“Kama alisema mimi ni mchawi, basi akuje atoe hayo manyoka. Kama mimi ni mchawi, hata yeye ni mchawi. Wachana na hizo, sitaki kuongea. Kama ni kuzungumza, ni mbele ya wazazi wangu na ndugu zangu, akuje tuongee, sitaki kuongea sasa,” the mother said.

However, Mtumishi defended himself saying he used the church altar to air out his tribulations- something he has battled with for years.

“Mimi sikuenda hadharani. Hisia hiyo ilikuja nilipokuwa kwenye madhabahu na nikasema hapa ndipo mahali pazuri. Sio kitu ambacho nilikuwa nimepanga kusema. Niliskia tu imenitoka. Nimeishi nayo tangu nikiwa mtoto,” Mtumishi said.

Massawe made a second attempt to reconcile Mtumsihi and his mother and this time she was successful. The two agreed to meet and iron out their differences.

Mtumishi apologized to his mother and remorsefully accepted the apology.

“Mama, naomba msamaha lakini ningependa kujua kama nimewahi kukosea ili niombe msamaha,” Mtumishi said.

The mother challenged Mtumishi to arrange for a proper session so that they could iron out everything, once and for all.

“Kama uliskia uchungu mbona hukuja? Hata bosi yangu amekuja hapa kuniuliza, unataka kuniharibia kazi nani anilishe,” Mama Mtumishi said.

She adde; “Tutaongea nyumbani, na sio pekee yangu kabisa, na sio mahali kwingine nyumbani. Wewe ni mtoto wangu. Sina shida na wewe.”

Mtumishi was happy that he was able to talk to his mother after a long time.

“Nimefurahi mama amesema tuende tuongee. Hivyo ndo nilikuwa nataka. Simchukii, nampenda ni mama yangu,” he said.

Mtumishi’s father also expressed disappointment in how his son handled the situation.
