Comedian Churchill opens up on plans to join politics
Comedian Churchill, a seasoned comedian, has mentioned that he is considering the possibility of venturing into politics in the future.
However, he acknowledges that he is currently more focused on the flourishing creative economy, indicating that he may not be prepared for a political career at this time.
“For now, I think I am serving well in the position I am in, giving back to the community through the Churchill Foundation, which is two years old.
When the time comes, Yarabi stara (Oh God, help), but for now there is so much to do in terms of nurturing talent,” the 46-year-old chuckled.
“What we have been praying for, especially in the creative space, has started to materialise, that artistes like Butita can now turn their lifestyle into a media house is such a big opportunity.
These are the kind of conversations we want to be a part of. If Safaricom is making all that profit, you should be happy because the future is data (bundles) and data means content.”
Churchill, having collaborated with various brands, expresses enthusiasm for the future of the creative economy, stating that corporates are investing significant budgets in this sector.
“The budgets of most companies, 60 per cent of them are now going into the digital space and so we can educate content creators on how to stay relevant and create content that can constantly build communities, which then translates into money.”
