"Fame fades fast": Wilbroda urges Bradley Marongo to prioritise mom over fame

Wilbroda urges Bradley Marongo to prioritise mom over fame. Radio presenter Jacquey 'Wilbroda' Nyaminde has advised Gen Z sensation Bradley Marongo following his newfound fame and issues with his mother. Speaking on her radio show, Wilbroda cautioned Bradley about the dangers of fame and urged him to stay grounded. "Huyu kijana ako na mbio sana. Nimeona amepiga picha na Terence, Sandra Dacha... nafikiri it's exciting na anajiona ni kama ameshakua celebrity. I just want to tell him ako mbali sana. And you will be very sorry vile wakenya wanasonga haraka sana," Wilbroda said. She compared his situation to that of Kasmuel McOure, a sensation during the Finance Bill protests, who slowly faded from the spotlight. "Just before Bradley, there was Kasmuel McOure, ambae alikua sensation anaitwa mpaka kwa maredio na TV stations, si unaona he is fading pole pole," she explained. Wilbroda further warned Bradley not to let material gifts and fame cloud his judgment. "Hutu tu suti anashonewa na viatu ananunuliwa should not excite him," she said. She also urged Bradley to reconcile with his mother, who recently claimed he no longer takes her calls. "Kama kuna mahali mama yako alikukosea, this is the time kuleta mama yako karibu. Huyu mama ndio akikuekelea mkono akuombee, Baraka zinaanza kukumiminikia," Wilbroda advised.

"Bradley no longer picks up my calls and is very busy with his managers. We talked on Monday last week but we differed on several issues," she said. Monica added that she was in Nairobi but Bradley did not visit her. "I was in Nairobi but Bradley never visited me. I was told he was given a house and three months' rent." She also mentioned that they had a disagreement over the deals Bradley had signed and expressed her frustration, saying, "I am the one who suffered when Bradley was growing up." A man claiming to be Bradley's uncle also urged him not to forget his roots. "You have started making money so be wise and help your people. Remember where you have come from and do not forget your mother," he said. Wilbroda reminded Bradley of how quickly fame can fade in Kenya. "Let me tell you, Kenyans will drop you like a hot potato. Aulize Githeri man mwenye alikua sensation mpaka akapatana na Rais, yuko wapi sahii? Akapewa hadi Head of State Commendation, ako wapi sahii," she added. Lang'ata MP Felix Oduor, popularly known as Jalang'o, also offered advice to Bradley. In an interview on the Iko Nini Podcast, Jalang'o encouraged Bradley to seize opportunities while his fame lasted. "Bradley, the Gen Z Goliath, was in the right place at the right time, and God's timing allowed him to be noticed during the protests," Jalang'o said. Jalang'o expressed his happiness for Bradley's success but stressed the importance of long-term financial security. "Right now, he's endorsed by a car company, a barbershop, and Bata. But I hope those managing his brand can secure more sustainable contracts. We don't want to see Bradley back on the streets," he said.
