Popular Radio presenter cum comedian Jalang’o was on Monday ‘attacked’ on Instagram by an angered supporter of artist Willy Paul for promoting Hamornize’s song.
Jalang’o had posted a video of him singing along to Harmonize’s latest song ‘Never Give up’ with a motivational caption.
“Whatever anyone tells you should never put you down!! No one can decide your destiny!! Only God knows#nevergiveup @harmonize_tz just sung my story !! Rejected so many times but believed in myself!!,” the caption to the video reads.
The intention of the Instagram post was to motivate people not to give up on the journey of being successful.
A strong Willy Paul fan identified as Jackson, however, took it personally and attacked Jalang’o for promoting Tanzanian songs instead of Kenyan.
“Acha Ufala, @jalangoo…Willi Poze maze #PromoteKenyanMusic unachoma buda.. Pozee na @officialnandy wameua 2 nighs ago…umenibore, ..nenda chuchuma sasa mcheeeeeew!! ,” Jackson commented on the post.
Jalang’o apparently did not take the statement lightly and went ahead to instruct the critic to unfollow him.
“@jacksonsimos hapo juu kwa bio yako kuna button ya unfollow! Ifinye!! Seitan!! ,” he clapped back.
Jalang’o is an experienced radio presenter who has worked with some of the top radio stations including Radio Maisha, Hot 96 and Milele FM.
