Kenyans’ hearts have been warmed by outspoken rapper KRG The Don’s act of kindness toward seasoned Vioja actress Mama Kayai.
The flamboyant singer paid the actress a visit at her Kasarani home on Thursday, April 20.
YouTuber Nicholas Kioko’s video shows KRG pulling up in a Range Rover and Lexus LX570.
KRG was greeted at the door by Mama Kayai and renowned Vioja Mahakamani judge Lucy Wangui.
Then KRG gave his bodyguard the order to unload the treats he had purchased for Mama Kayai.
Among other delicacies, they contained six dozen maize, wheat flour, and milk.
He was then welcomed inside Mama Kayai’s home by a group of Muslim women who were already there.
He complied after KRG revealed that Mama Kayai had reached out to him.
“A father might not always prioritise the family’s needs, but when you give a woman KSh 1,000, she will use it on her household,” he said, noting that the foodstuff was a gift for Eid Al Fitr.
Mama Kayai wished God’s blessing upon KRG, saying:
“I did expect he would talk to me because people say he is full of pride. He promised to come, and he did. May God continue blessing him. Very few artistes would do this. Many of them ignored my calls,” Mama Kayai said.
On the other hand, Wangui urged the government to consider pioneer actors in appointments.
Mama Kayai appeals to Ababu Namwamba not to forgot veteran artistes
Recently, Mama Kayai reminded Cabinet Secretary for Youth Affairs, Sports and the Arts, Ababu Namwamba, not to overlook veteran artistes in the newly established Talanta Hela Council.
According to Mama Kayai, veteran artistes, like herself, should also be included to bring about diverse ideas.
“Mimi nilipata hio habari, nilifurahia kwa sababu ilianzishwa lakini ile kitu ilinishangaza ni kimoja, hivi vitu vunatakikana watu wachanganywe watu wa zamani na wa sasa. Maanake mahali popote wazee wakiwemo hakuna jambo linaweza haribika, wao watoe idea zao za kisasa na sisi tutoe za zamani,” Mama Kayai said.
”Na ambapo tukiwekwa pale wao wakiongea tunaweza warekebisha, ni ile tuu kusaidiana, nilifurahi kwa sababu Churchill na wengineo walichaguliwa lakini sisi artistes wa zamani, na tuko wengi, hakuna hata mmoja alipata hiyo chance,” she said.
