David Oyando aka Mulamwa is one the most successful comedians in Kenya. He graduated from St Anthony Kitale High School where he scored an A- and pursued a degree in nursing at Moi university. Oyando is from Butere, Kakamega county.
The comedian revealed that he shot his clips before creating his own YouTube account and he was shocked at the kind of publicity they attracted. He was then encouraged by friends to create his own channel and earn from his contents, which he did.
From his interview at “Mungai Eve Media”, the comedian revealed how he came to be known as Mulamwa. He said that he was named Mulamwa by his friend Rashid. They were listening to one of the songs by Kendrick Lamar while selling phones with Rashid and after the song, Rashid shouted that, “that is Kendrick Mulamwa,” instead of Kendrick Lamar. People around him laughed at the joke made by Rashid and began calling Oyando “Mulamwa”. That is how he adopted the name.
He went ahead to state how he received his first salary from YouTube and how part of that salary was stolen by a thief from Nairobi. He met this guy online and the guy was selling a new iPhone 8 at a cheaper price. After meeting the guy, he withdrew the money from m-Pesa and gave the guy. Instantly, the guy showed him a gun and took the money and the phone then left. He revealed that he never bothered to pursue the issue further. After the incident, he went to meditate at Jeevanjee Gardens.
