- Tahidi High star Kamau Kinuthia’s (Omosh) wives reacted to his pleas for menial jobs in several TV interviews.
- Omosh on Wednesday, June 30, disclosed that his two wives reprimanded him for begging for jobs and casting a desperate image during the live shows. He added that they were irked by his decision to conduct interviews without consulting them.
- “They were wondering why I went to beg, again, on national television without informing them of what I’d say in the interview. Even my friends were taken aback by the now-misunderstood message,” Omosh stated. He further stated that going forward, he had agreed to discuss with them before making any major decision and that the wives had agreed to support and stand by him. “Right now we are okay. I have learnt to consult them and listen to their advice,” he stated.
- Some of his friends had criticised the wives for failing to guide him and even lamented that they did not pass on crucial messages to Omosh. This included a plan to offer him rehabilitation. One of his confidants had spoken to the wives and an alleged personal assistant on the idea as the actor couldn’t be traced.The wives and the PA reportedly never conveyed the message forcing the friends to track him down and personally speak with him.
- Omosh also explained that the equipment he asked for and was granted by a well-wisher – a camera, microphone and other video production tools – would be used in shooting his skits that will be uploaded on social media. “But I am still jobless,” he lamented. In a previous interview on TV47, he stated that he had planned to open businesses for his wives.
- On Monday, June 29, he stated that he rejected offers to attend rehabilitation in fear of deserting his family for three months. His former Tahidi High colleagues had linked him with NACADA -National Authority for the Campaign Against Drug Abuse and Chiromo Hospital Group in Westlands who were willing to offer him services for free.
- Nonetheless, the friends were adamant that he attends rehab and the parties came to an agreement that Omosh would be enrolled for counselling at Chiromo on Saturday, July 3.
- “We intend to meet at Omosh’s home on Saturday 3rd July and invite well-wishers to come with food and money for his family. This is because he’ll be away for 3 months in rehab,” said Kevin Onyiso, who starred as Eddy in Tahidi High.
