Kenyan Celebs and adverts


If you are a Kenyan celebrity and you are not in an advert, be worried, very worried because it seems it is the in thing in advertising

Jalang’o and Otoyo and Wilbroda in ng’ombe molo milk; Mc  jesse of Churchill in santa lucia; Shish of tahidi in bolt; Congestina in tuskys; Melvin of Tahidi in dumu zas; Gody of Changes in Guinness; Sarah Hassan (Tanya) of tahidi in air freshner; Miss Morgan in Naivas and many many others

This is actually the latest trend in advertising in Kenya. Using celebrities to endorse products. We’ll see how far that goes.

Does this mean that creativity in Kenya has died down hence the resort to celebs for advertising.

I still don’t understand how they got Churchill to endorse Qfm, in as much as it is boring, I care less anyway, but I thought radio free Africa would care about one of their own endorsing a competitor

Anyway, no worries, as it has been said, “siasa za peni mbili za ja mtaa”
