Shalkido, a member of the once-popular Gengetone group Sailors Gang, has opened up about his life and revealed that he is not doing very well.
Unbeknownst to many of his fans, the Pekenjeng hit maker has been struggling a lot financially, to the extent that he cannot provide for his family anymore.
Shalkido actually opened up about his situation in some posts that he made on his Instagram stories on Monday, where he further revealed that every job that he has been trying to do so as to put food on the table has unfortunately not been succeeding.
The talented singer further shared photos of how he has been living in a deplorable state, and then made a humble appeal to Kenyans of goodwill to just come through for him in any way possible.
Shalkido especially reached out to comedian Eric Omondi, who has been famous for his works of charity under the Sisi Kwa Sisi umbrella, and asked him to also consider helping him in order for him to overcome his challenges.
The singer actually said that he would appreciate even getting a motorbike that he can now use to employ himself, and therefore be able to provide for his family at the end of the day.
“As a Kenyan artist and a Father, nimefika mwisho š„¹, I’ve tried my very best to support my family but everything goes south, I’ve tried every hustle imekua noma š. I’m really humbled to ask my beautiful great Kenyans to help me share this post ifikie Eric Omondi š„¹. @ericomondi Mhesh I’m really humbled kuomba support yako, niigata hata Bike ya kuanza Hustle to support my family Again I’ll be much Grateful Sir š„¹šš.
