Videos of a middle-aged Kenyan guy living life to the fullest while dancing to the regional hit song “Kuna Kuna” went viral on social media during the holiday season.
On New Year’s Eve, Vic West’s hit song with Fathermoh, Savara, Brandy Maina, and Thee Exit Band had made the merry man its face.
He bursts out some excellent dance steps throughout the song’s chorus, especially during the moment where they are caressing and kissing.
More of his clips are now appearing online weeks later, catapulting him higher on the list of trending topics.
Even the most picky online users have said they enjoy his mood. Some younger ladies have even come clean about wanting to date him.
But who is this dancing warrior with spectacles who has been cheering up Kenyans?
According to reliable sources, his name is John Ogilo Migun.
According to people who know him personally, Mr. Ogilo Migun was previously a youth basketball coach in Nyanza and is currently a chief in Kisumu North.
Investigation
On the day he tickled netizens Migun and his colleagues had just finished patrol and they were headed to “have late lunch”.
Based on a recent interview the dancing chief told Citizen TV where they had gone to eat they were also doing undercover investigative work on matters relating to drug abuse within the area.
Kuna Kuna is one of Migun’s favourite songs so it was automatic for him to start dancing immediately after the music started blaring through the speakers.
What he did not expect was to be filmed and the video of him dancing going viral.
He said the viral video has made him popular and he has become the youth’s buddy and they are able to talk to him about drug peddlers and illicit local brews being made within his area of jurisdiction.
“The youth are able to approach me with much ease and talk to me freely as opposed to before. Recently, I managed to successfully raid a place thanks to a tip I received from the youth in my area. This never used to happen before.”
