The tall man, who hoped to gain fame similar to Vihiga’s Bradley Marongo, aka Mtall, was recently spotted walking through Kanduyi carrying a suitcase. This sighting has sparked a flurry of reactions from Kenyans on social media.
Otesa’s journey to Nairobi was marked by excitement and high hopes. He moved to the capital city with aspirations of achieving stardom and had even called for a competition, aiming to make a name for himself in a manner similar to other notable figures in Kenya’s social scene.
His association with Manzi Wa Kibera, a popular socialite, further fueled speculation that Otesa was on the verge of a breakthrough.
However, his recent return to Bungoma has led many to question what went wrong. The viral video showing Otesa walking through Kanduyi with his suitcase has drawn significant attention.
Some netizens have expressed sympathy for Otesa, suggesting that he may have faced setbacks in Nairobi. Despite this, others are optimistic, believing that his return home is merely a pause before his big break.
On social media, reactions have varied widely. Some users feel that Otesa's time to shine may not have arrived yet but encourage him to stay hopeful.
They suggest that this period back home could be an opportunity for him to regroup and prepare for future success. Comments such as “His time will come... it’s not now” and “His time will find him... I believe in trying” reflect this supportive sentiment.
Others have been more critical, questioning whether Otesa's efforts in Nairobi were worthwhile. For example, one user remarked, “Aki manze wa Kibera just wasted his time after kuwapikia ugali,” implying that the association with Manzi Wa Kibera may not have yielded the expected results.
However, there are also users who have offered prayers and positive wishes, with comments like, “May God make a way for him. By his grace and favor, he will find what has been apportioned to him. Amen.”
It is clear that Otesa’s journey has not been straightforward. The challenge of transitioning from a local figure to a nationwide sensation can be daunting, and not everyone achieves immediate success.
The reality of fame often involves ups and downs, and many public figures experience periods of struggle before they reach their goals. For Otesa, this return to Bungoma might be a necessary step in his path to success.
In addition to the social media reactions, there has been praise for Manzi Wa Kibera’s role in Otesa’s journey. A video showing Otesa trying on new sneakers, which were provided by Manzi Wa Kibera, was seen as a positive gesture.
This act of support was acknowledged by some users who appreciated the help Otesa received during his time in Nairobi.
As Otesa settles back into life in Kanduyi, the future remains uncertain. While his return might seem like a setback, it could also be an opportunity for him to reflect, re-energize, and strategize for the future.
The encouragement from Kenyans, coupled with his own determination, might very well pave the way for Otesa’s eventual success.
