Taking to Instagram, the comic heaped praises on the former MP for his contribution to his career and the entertainment industry at large.
Eric recalled an instance where Kuria sponsored his trip to the US where he was scheduled for a series of shows with fellow comedian, Chipukeezy.
“This man Moses Kuria. Let me tell you a story. It is true that the things that a man does in Secret shall be rewarded in broad daylight. Moses has been supporting myself and a load of young people over the years
“I remember 8 years ago when He sponsored our first USA tour with @chipukeezy to New York, Dalas and later Joined us in Vegas on Memorial day for our show,” Kuria said.
Supporting the youth
Eric also hailed Kuria for his passion and support for the youth, recalling how the MP would check on him when his business was facing closure.
He also disclosed how Kuria would give the youth jobs and internship opportunities at his media station.
“When I opened my offices and Big Tyme Productions and soo many people fought for its closure, Moses must have called me only a thousand and one times to encourage and advise me
“With his Fanaka TV he supported numerous youths through employments and Internships, this I witnessed. Moses calls me atleast twice every month just to ask ‘vijana wako aje?’,” Eric added.
The comedian expressed confidence in Kuria, noting that he perfectly understands his role and he will deliver.
“What’s my point? I am happy because I know if there is anyone who will deliver in matters governance and trade for this Nation, Moses will be that man. He has touched base with the young Entrepreneurs of this Nation and understands role perfectly,” Eric concluded.
Eric Omondi fired
In July, the comic recalled how he was unceremoniously fired from KTN after his show flopped.
Eric said he was hired by the media station after Churchill Show went on a break for nearly two years.
The comic said the show dubbed, Hawayuni aired for only two episodes before KTN pulled the plug on it.
Eric confessed that he hurriedly grabbed the opportunity to bag the contract with KTN without taking time to come up with a comprehensive plan for the show.
“So nlikua very famous si Churchill akenda break ya one and a half year akarudi Classic FM. Sasa mimi nkabaki hapo na fame yangu iko kule juu. Haikuchukua ata siku mbili simu ndo hio KTN ‘hallo, we were told Churchill has taken a break what will you be doing? Tunataka kukupea show’. Akemention hela, hio hela ilikua nzuri
“Wakaniuliza ‘we are thinking so you come in we prepare we start next month’. Nkamwambia no no no. Nkadanganya. Mi nahitaji hela ‘nkasema mimi nimekua na concept, nimekua na show ata nimekua nkiandika, tuanze next week’. Nataka hela maanake nyumba imefungwa nini. Nikaanza the followig week sina jina, sina concept sina anything,” Eric said.
