Andrew Kibe Advocates Paid Political Endorsements

Andrew Kibe has joined a growing chorus of Kenyan celebrities advocating for paid political endorsements, emphasizing that public figures should not lend their influence without compensation.

Kibe's remarks echo sentiments previously expressed by fellow entertainer Oga Obinna, who stated he would only support a political party if he received payment for it. This perspective highlights a shift in how public figures view their role in politics and the need for financial recognition for their influence.

Andrew Kibe is a well-known media personality and influencer in Kenya, recognized for his candid opinions and engaging content across various platforms. Recently, he has been in the spotlight for confirming a boxing match against Mumias East MP Peter Salasya, scheduled for December 2026. Kibe announced that the contract for the fight is finalized and available on his phone, indicating his commitment to the event.

Oga Obinna, another prominent figure in the entertainment industry, was initially involved in organizing the boxing match but has since been excluded from Kibe's promotion team due to trust issues. Kibe expressed dissatisfaction with the financial terms proposed by Obinna's team, suggesting that the anticipated public interest in the fight warrants better compensation. The upcoming match is expected to attract significant attention, blending elements of entertainment and politics as both Kibe and Salasya are prominent figures in their respective fields.
