Sometimes in February this year, controversial singer Akothee sparked public uproar with her raunchy performance at Papa Remo beach in Watamu.
Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) CEO Ezekiel Mutua was quick to condemn Akothee for her performance.
The moral police took to Facebook to read the riot act to the controversial singer.
“Kenya has got talent but as long as we keep celebrating this kind of madness, our entertainment industry will never grow.
“Akothee is talented but the filthy and stupid stunts she has to pull to remain relevant should concern all of us …”
Akothee is talented but the filthy and stupid stunts she has to pull to remain relevant should concern all of us. What’s worse is to see grown-up men and women celebrating this scatological obscenity in the name of entertainment.
We have lost it as a nation. People like Akothee cannot be role models for our daughters. Music doesn’t have to be dirty to sell. How I wish artists like Akothee would know how much influence they have on our youths and try to use that influence to produce content that is edifying. This kind is crass, moronic and a theatre of the absurd.
It’s demonic to the core and only appeals to debilitating and incorrigible perverts and brainless audiences. Akothee must stop this idiosyncrasy. There’s no dignity in this crap either for her or even her audience.
Image may contain: 1 person, on stage,” wrote Ezekiel Mutua.
Well, the moral police is now convinced that Akothee has reformed. He made the remark during an interview with Ken Mijungu on NTV’s Side Bar show on September 24th.
“You know Akothee is a superstar and she has reformed. I will only have an issue with inappropriate content when it is displayed in the public. However, if such was in the privacy of their homes, then KFCB will have no business with it,” said Ezekiel Mutua.
