The comment didn’t go well with Director Trevor who stepped in to set the record straight that in her own way, Mungai Eve alongside her team have contributed more than one million shillings to aid the rapper.
Director Trevor noted that the list was from just one group while there are multiple groups raising funds for the rapper.
“My friend hiyo ni pesa ya group moja tu! (My friend that money is from one group only) Mungai Eve plus the team have contributed over a million!!!” Trevor fired back.
