Comedian Felix Odiwuor aka Jalang’o has finally set the record straight on a widely shared video of Jeff Koinange and him in a rather awkward situation during their radio show.
In the video, Jeff was seen calling his colleague ‘stupid’ on a rather light note but the situation was blown out of proportion by blogs that suggested it was one of the reasons why he left Royal Media Services owned Hot96.
Through an Instagram post on Sunday, Jalang’o stated that the video was taken out of context and he has no beef with Koinange.
He further reiterated that he has a good relationship with the celebrated anchor and they have mutual respect for one another.
“I have received so many calls asking me why I left Hot 96 and why I parted ways with Jeff when the show was such an amazing gig and everything was just perfect...
“Now here NOT why I left! There is this story doing rounds that Jeff abused me or called me stupid and blogs have picked it and making everyone believe that it's the reason why I left! NO JEFF DID NOT CALL ME STUPID!” he wrote.
The comedian added: “What the blogs have done is pick a Part of our conversation and edited it to feed this lie! Jeff and I had and still do have the best relationship ever! Jeff actually knew that I was leaving and wished me well...
“I have since called Jeff and we had the best conversation and the show must and will go on without me Hot 96 is a big brand. So let no one lie to you that Jeff abused me...he would never do that because of the respect we have for each other.”
He then thanked the celebrated anchor for giving him the chance to work with him, stating that their paths would cross again.
