Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Eunice Mammito cooked for after she mocked Jowie Irungu ‘death sentence’ in viral insensitive jokes.
Comedian Eunice Mammito on Wednesday was on the spot after she posted a skit on her social media platforms, making a ‘light moment’ on Joseph ‘Jowie’ Irungu’s death sentence.
The skit came hours after Jowie was handed a death sentence in the murder of Monica Kimani in 2018. Justice Grace Nzioka ruled that Jowie would suffer death for a pre-meditated murder.
She also made several other unpalatable jokes about the conviction. This triggered Kenyans, who in droves castigated the comedian for making Jowie’s conviction a subject of mockery.
Many called her out for being insensitive despite what had befallen Jowie, and even failing to honour the late Monica Kimani’s memory in her skit.
While some found it amusing, others expressed outrage and disappointment, labeling it as insensitive to the severity of the matter at hand.
The backlash on social media was swift, with comments pouring in condemning Mammito’s comedic approach to such a grave subject.
Comments ranged from labeling her actions as “high-class insensitivity” and “heartless” to questioning her empathy towards Jowie’s family in such a trying time.
