Vincent Mwasia Mutua, better known as Chipukeezy, has provided insight into the cessation of his show, The Chipukeezy Show, on Kenya Broadcasting Corporation (KBC).
In a statement released on Facebook and Instagram, signed by Ufalme Entertainment director Michael Muthama, Chipukeezy explained that the state corporation had been delinquent in settling payments owed to them for several months.
“Dear valued partners, suppliers, artists and fans. We hope this message finds you well. We at Ufalme Entertainment would like to address a matter that has been of concern to many of you. It is with a heavy heart that we must inform you of the ongoing delay in payments from our media partner, KBC. Since November, we have encountered significant delays in receiving payments from KBC, despite our best efforts to uphold our commitments to all stakeholders involved in the production of The Chipukeezy Show,” the statement read in part.
He says lack of payment has impacted the show’s production, resulting in its hiatus for months now.
“As a production company dedicated to maintaining high standards of professionalism and integrity, we understand the impact that these delays can have on our valued partners, suppliers, and artists,” he added.
