Thee Pluto, a well-known content developer who poses as a “chief sanitizer” on his famous show, is being criticized by radio co-host Oga Obinna.
The comedian criticizes the infamous series for its “sensationalism” in a highly worded tweet, alleging that the show is scripted and the hosts are acting too comfortably.
He queries why Thee Pluto continues to employ ‘outdated’ technology, which exacerbates the session.
“So none of these “sanitising shows” can get a handheld mic, a boom, a lapel or anything?? Must they keep holding that long ugly a*s cord with a “lapel” mic at the end moving it from one person to another? Y’all get very comfortable out here. Plus the scripting is now too much, LOL,” Obinna wrote.
The 22-year-old heard about the comments and attacked Obinna on social media, citing the effect the video has had on his team.
Thee Pluto argues that he has helped them grow the business, generated additional job possibilities, and amassed millions of views on YouTube in his defense.
“The long ugly mic got us130M and 700K every 48 hours Got some good dude’s employment and made us open another channel. Kama wewe si fan, huezi elewa utamu wa kukimbia na hako ka mike. We understand you,” Thee Pluto responded.
He didn’t make it clear that the sensational episodes are scripted, but if they are, he might think about including a notice at the start of each episode that it is dramatization and not a report on actual events.
The sector of content creation has recently come under increasing criticism from fans who want to see more originality and authenticity.
This has happened as a result of the overuse of ruses and clout-seeking tactics.
This is mostly done to start engagement metrics before a new project is released and, more likely, to reuse them to inflate these interactions afterwards.
Alternatively, in this instance, misrepresenting a scenario as real while it is actually a staged act.
