This Is Not Clout, Jalang’o Responds To Claims Of Him Chasing Clout After His Employees Stealing From Him

Jalang’o, a comedian and a former Kiss 100 presenter, announced a week ago that two of his employees, Eli and Litiema, had stolen a large sum of money from him.

Jalang’o announced that the two were on the run with their families and offered a Sh100,000 reward to anyone with information about them and their whereabouts.

While many sympathized with the Lang’ata MP sincerly, some thought the comedian was using the story to gain clout, while others went as far as saying he was looking for sympathy votes.

In an interview with Mungai Eve of Youtube, Jalang’o cleared those rumors saying he had no reason to chase clout, insisting that is not who he is.

“I heard people saying that am clout chasing, these are people who even my children know, that is the last thing I will ever do, and if you know me that is something I will never do,” Jalang’o said.

“No there is nothing like sympathy votes, it is true Eli and Litiema stole money from my house and ran with their families and it has been reported to even the DCI.”

Jalang’o once again narrated the chronological order of events leading up to when he realized his money was missing.

“On that day I used my wife’s car to meet a certain group of people and I was tired from the campaigns, remember I had my wife’s car. My daughter’s art was in the car and she requested to get her arts out of the car.”

Adding, “Eli and Litiema were washing the car on that Saturday, and while in the process, they came into contact with the money and although it has never occurred to me that they would do that.

Through the day it had not occurred to me that they had left and when I wanted to use the money, I realized that the guys are not there and the money was missing.”

Over the weekend, Jalang’o shocked many when he stated that he would gladly welcome Eli and Litiema back and even reinstate them in their jobs.

He did, however, have one condition: the two surrender to law enforcement authorities.

He expressed his disappointment with the two men he had treated as family on Milele FM.

“They have betrayed our brotherhood. They are now fleeing with their families, one of whom has recently had a child, now you can imagine what they are going through.”
