Chipukeezy spills beans on Andrew Kibe’s controversial rise


Kenyan comedian Chipukeezy has stirred the gossip pot, declaring that controversial media personality Andrew Kibe is a monster created by the very industry that now struggles to control him.

The MC, known for his unfiltered opinions, admitted to supporting some of Kibe’s contentious views, particularly those on feminism and its impact on various industries in Kenya.

Chipukeezy didn’t mince words, stating, “There are other things he talks about that I take sides with him. I agree with him super. Like those things, he says about feminism and how it has affected industries in Kenya, those things we have talked about… Kibe does things, and you know why I believe it’s facts? Because they took him, tried to play those games with him, and he understood the craft of speaking out. So nobody knows how to deal with Kibe.”

Kibe, notorious for his outspoken demeanor, has faced criticism from prominent figures such as Jalas, Mulamwah, Eric Omondi, and Akothee, who believe he should wield his influence more responsibly. Despite the backlash, Kibe continues to boldly voice his opinions, often sparking controversy on various issues affecting Kenyans.

According to Chipukeezy, Kibe’s emergence as a powerful voice in the media landscape is not by accident. “Andrew Kibe is a creation of the industry because…And this is how the Kenyan industry works; it’s just that Andrew Kibe bites them. They created a lion that bites them.”

Chipukeezy claims that Kibe’s televised presence was a strategic move by the industry, replacing someone else to serve a specific agenda. “It is a game in this radio business. They wanted him to speak like that because those were the same things he was saying.”

The comedian went on to emphasize that the industry initially welcomed Kibe’s rough and rule-breaking approach. However, as Kibe began to turn his critical eye towards influential figures, the industry grappled with the monster it had created. “They are comfortable with him saying those things about others. But now he has started saying this about their friends.”

Chipukeezy asserted that Kibe’s popularity skyrocketed as multiple media offers flooded in, driven by misconceptions about his persona. “They thought he is a clown; they thought maybe he is an intelligent person; they thought he is not what he says.”
