Eric Omondi: Wife Material Cost Me A Lot Of Corporate Deals
Eric Omondi has revealed that his viral ‘Wife Material’ reality show cost him endorsement deals.
Speaking on Radio Maisha’s Konnect show, the funnyman said several corporates, among them a betting company, pulled out of partnerships with him citing ‘unethical content’.
“I lost a lot. They said, ‘Our product is family-oriented. We do not know what you are doing with your brand- kissing girls’,” Omondi told hosts Mwende Macharia and Clemo.
Despite the setback, Omondi said ‘Wife Material’ boosted his numbers and other clients came on board.
“Luckily, I am the most followed personality in Kenya. I feel very blessed and thank my fans. It is because of them that I get endorsements. Sponsors see these followers who are fans and actual people, who love and follow me,” he said.
