Kenyan entertainer and comedian Inspekta Mwala has become the centre of attention after reports emerged that he delivered a remarkable performance at an athletics event in the United Kingdom, earning multiple gold medals and sparking widespread celebration back home.
The veteran comedian reportedly took part in a 60-metre sprint event during the 33rd National Games for athletes with dwarfism held in London. According to accounts shared online, Mwala defied expectations and clinched victory in a race that featured international competitors, securing at least three gold medals across different categories, including athletics and team sports.
His unexpected success quickly went viral after he shared humorous details of his journey, joking that he started the race from behind before overtaking all his competitors to win. In his signature comedic style, Mwala also playfully claimed that he had not undergone formal training yet still managed to outperform others, a statement that further amused fans online.
Former radio presenter Jeridah Andayi publicly celebrated his achievement, describing him warmly as her “forever manfriend” and encouraging Kenyans to prepare a lively airport reception for him upon his return. Her post triggered a wave of reactions, with many users praising the light-hearted friendship and chemistry between the two public figures.
In a playful exchange that followed, Mwala teased Jeridah, joking that his move to Europe was motivated by her refusal to marry him. He further added that he expected to return home with prize money and possibly government recognition for his sporting achievements, including references to reported cash awards for gold medalists.
Jeridah, in turn, matched his humour, applauding his performance and joking that State House officials should organize a grand welcome complete with traditional dancers at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.
The lighthearted back-and-forth between the two celebrities has since gone viral, with fans enjoying the mix of humour, nostalgia, and celebration of Kenyan talent abroad.
