He later went back home to save his career which was sinking.

4. Teacher Wanjiku
She was the first female comedian at Churchill show, however, after gaining fame she decided to go Eric Omondi’s way with proper planning.
Her show aired on Citizen TV was a flop after Kenyans questioned her style of comedy which according to them was not exactly appealing to everyone.
This is mostly because it incorporates few or no jokes at all, but is entirely based on shrubbing. Even the most die-hard Wanjiku fan got bored. She was later forced to return to Churchill show.
From his jokes of Kariobangi and East lands, Butita has surely mastered the art of comedy and how to make his audience laugh by connecting what happens on the ground with what people can relate with all thanks to Churchill.

Eric Omondi
He was actually the first who tried ditching his master after being lured by KTN. His show however was a huge flop and was cancelled just a few days after airing.
