Obinna would have been part of the series of dramas witnessed on Sunday, May 1st which involved Eric Omondi and Bongo singer Harmonize.
Harmonize was arrested and briefly detained at Kileleshwa Police station for obtaining money under false pretense after club promoters accused him of performing for less than five minutes.
Joe Barsil, a director at the Captain’s Lounge in Sabaki, said Harmonize was supposed to perform for one and a half hours but only did five minutes.
“I paid Sh450,000 to Melamani Limited for Harmonize to come to the club for a party and to be with the fans for one and a half hours, but when he came he only stayed for not more than five minutes. This angered the fans who wanted to beat him up but I protected him, I want to be refunded the amount I spent,” Basil said outside the police station.
Eric Omondi was the point man for the four clubs that contracted Harmonize. The Bongo singer and the Kenyan comedian blamed each other for what happened.
“One of the organizers is right, he had a prior contract with Harmonize that he cannot do a show without their knowledge, I told him to return the money to Gateway, Volume, and Kokoriko,” Eric told members of the press.

Eric further claimed that Harmonize refused to refund the money and went ahead and punched him in the face.
However, the Bongo singer was released after he reportedly refunded two club promoters Ksh300,000 and Ksh450,000.
Eric and Harmonize reconciled and even flew together to Mombasa for another club performance that was headlined by the Bongo singer.
Obinna has since come out to reveal that he would have been part of the drama involving Eric and Harmonize. The Kiss FM presenter said he saw the drama happening from the moment he was approached to promote Harmonize’s gigs.
“I was called to go to that event but hatukuelewana pesa and I didn’t know my Jesus was protecting me via not kuelewana,” said Obinna.
He added that;
“I saw kina Fred Omondi doing a roadshow advertising the show. I was seeing this story and the ngumi part I was like sounds a little bit interesting, hours later tumesameheana and I was like I saw this coming.”
