Singer Bahati has jokingly issued a response to a viral video of presidential candidate Raila Odinga misnaming him during an Azimio One Kenya coalition campaign rally on Sunday.
The video, recorded at Kamukunji Grounds where the rally was held, shows the presidential hopeful reading out names of parliamentary aspirants present at the rally. He seemingly is trying to locate the singer’s name albeit with difficulty, leading Bahati to try and get his attention to no avail.
The singer attempts to shout his name, but it somehow lands on deaf ears. It is at that point that he exclaims ‘Mathew!’ likely referring to Bahati, before calling aloud Jalang’o’s name.
The controversial musician has responded to the internet fodder, poking fun at the hilarity of it all. “It looks like Baba just gave me a name. Bahati Kioko AKA Mathew..I accept,” He wrote on his social media,” He jokes as followers flood his comments with laugh emoticons.
