According to reliable sources,the lecturer was going round checking the students examination cards in the examination hall last week when the occurrence took place .

The so said female student had unfortunately carried along her roommates examination card in the middle of a rush and ended up producing it the moment the lecturer reached her seat.

She tried to explain herself but the lecturer insisted this was a grievous mistake punishable according to the University rules and regulations .

Eventually the two arrived at a conclusion that they would deal with the issue after the paper so the elderly man called the young female student to his office where he started molesting her despite protest.

PROFESSOR HAMO LOOK-ALIKE CHARMS MASENO UNIVERSITY AS LAUGHTER OVERDOSE TAKES OVER CAMPUS COMEDY - Bonyeza Star

Vincent Mutweri (Prof Hamo look alike) on stage 

By Mkikuyu Mjaka.
We leave for Maseno University Main Campus at exactly 4.00pm from Kisumu Town that is. The previous night we had been covering an event . 

Soon as we reach the varsity's main entrance we are eager to see whether the event is going to receive a good audience.

The emptiness of Siriba Highway sends us chills but then we carry on .

We arrive at the venue and to our surprise everyone is seated with a huge hall fully packed  leaving only the pathway to the proscenium stage .

audience

At this point we decide to settle in few minutes after which 1GB takes the stage.

1GB

He proves to be the likable type cracking lines derived from campus life basically but maintaining his salvation aspect of it.He uses his lines skillfully to bring out the amount of frustration comrades go through especially with regard to relationships. He keeps ladies and gentlemen glued to his captivating performance which is blended with a bit of dance .His stage movements,facial expressions and audience captivation technique is way too good. 1GB is another Njugush in the making.Quite accurate with his lines.

SNIPER

After a few performances the ladies man Siyper gets on stage with a powerful introduction. He employs the use of sound effects so well that the crowd cant help laugh all through. His suit costume is just the proper outfit for any comedian who wants to pick up lines by imitating a church pastor .His jokes however are drawn far and beyond campus life.
At one point he gives a flat joke deliberately at first before  emphasizing on it only to send the hall wild again.

Sniper  in two occasions invites supporting characters front stage to ensure his non verbal cues sink in down so well. Lets just say out of 10 jokes,9 were so much on point. This guy is a Tv material.

SIRKAL

Sirkal is the type that will climb upstage and without really being sure of how he looks like ,his voice will tell it all. The super comedian exhausts all his energy on this luo ohangla beats,you might think he understands the lyrics .His dancing skills are just up point from synchrony,to body movements to the mood .His jokes are what experts call back-to-back with one bombshell after the other. This particular discussion about baby shower babies and non baby shower babies brings the show to a standstill before sending everyone in wails .Sirkal has been to numerous stages so he knows how to exploit his signature voice .

BLACKY.

On the other hand the well known  Blacky blends storytelling and punchlines so well that you might mistake him for teardrops and MCA Tricky combined.

Blacky I must admit is a way to intelligent comedian who knows where to put what rhyme and what word as long as the humor is maintained .He is able to hold the audience so captivated and silent for a long period before nailing the joke right on the head. 

VINNIE BAITE

Vincent Mutweri has the most thrilling and calculated stage entry. Unlike the rest of the comedians,he enters from the front door that leads to the hall way and not backstage. He has arranged with the female emcee to announce that the next performer is a surprise guest comedian from the popular Churchill comedy  Show ,Professor Hamo.

Vinnie's regalia does not betray him same to his glasses and huge book with an Afro hairstyle depicting exactly how Professor Hamo looks like.

Even amid slight discontentment from fans ,he his able to hold the show down just the same way Hamo would have done it.His dancing skills are just too good for a man who decided to give his life to comedy. 

At some point he skillfully goes commercial mentioning the so called Mama Farida Hotel numerous times. We ask around and we are told Mama Farida is facing victimization from defamers who want to bring her down maliciously so Vinnie Baite has to save her out of the mess. That's what we call comedy for community development.

BLACKY THE BAND

The trio which brings together Sirkal,Vinnie and Blacky wrap it up with one hell of a translation quagmire enveloped with language barrier from English to Kiswahili.

At some point the joke about Tanzanian Artistes being more creative than Kenyan artistes emerges and that is how Timmy T Dat and Lang' Katalang' turn into laughing stocks at the expense of Wasafi Artistes,Rich Mavoko and  Maua Sama . But that is comedy not real life. 

Whatever way Genge artiste King Lang took the joke about his full stage name being longer than his lyrics only himself knows.

VERDICT
The sound system was good,except for a bit of stage lighting 
Performances from other non comedians were so excellent including the singing and the skit.
I really feel the show was underpaid,next time the entrance fee should scale higher to Ksh200 from Ksh50.
