Samuel Muchoki alias Samidoh doubles as an Administration Police (AP) officer and a musician. He didn’t resign from the police service because of the needy children his salary is supporting.
The Mugiithi star revealed in a recent interview that a huge chunk of his salary goes towards paying the school fees of the children he sponsors.
Samidoh disclosed that he is taking care of many vulnerable children in his former secondary school in Laikipia county.
The Mugiithi singer noted that being partially raised by the community inspired him to go back to the school and touch lives.
“I had moments during my secondary school years where I became a son of the community literally. It was painful being sent home for fees knowing very well there was no one to ask from. I wished there was someone who would come through for me. That is how the education programme came to be,” he said.
The singer further opened up about how he juggles between police service and his music career.
“I work during weekdays and when needed and during the weekends do my music, just like every other talent in the police service,” he said.
“Have you ever gone to a police recruitment exercise and seen people without shirts being taken through various activities? Leaving a job you searched for under those circumstances is very painful,” he added.
