He added that some individuals within the work place expressed the desire to see him dismissed solely because of his dreadlocks. He revealed that they went to the extent of requesting the chairman of Royal Media Services, SK Macharia, to terminate his employment due to this reason.
“I like my boss, Mr chairman. One day I met him in the corridors of Royal Media Services, and he looked at me and told me ‘aah you know people are telling me to fire you for having dreadlocks’ and he said, ‘aren’t you working and delivering? Endelea na kazi’. Once he said that, I knew no one would tell me anything,” he said.
