Obinna asked his successor not to repeat the same mistake he made of asking for Ksh1 million salary when he applied for the Kiss FM job.
Oga Obinna quit Kiss FM exactly one year after he joined the station. His last day with the station was on April 17, 2023.
There were some speculations that Obinna had been fired by the Kiss FM management but the comedian has since come out to set the record straight.
“Those saying I have been fired, it is still very okay but my reason is very personal,” Obinna explained.
The comedian speaking during an interview with a local publication said that his contract with Radio Africa Group expired and for personal reasons he chose not to renew his contract.
The comedian took to social media to advise his successor on matters salary.
Obinna warned his would-be successor not to ask for a Ksh1 million salary, advising them to settle for Ksh700,000 monthly salary instead.
“The next person acheze na 700 hapo, times are tough usiitishe 1M hautapata, hata 710 usidhubutu. May the next best man/woman/them win. Ukiipata hiyo chance, piga kazi safi that’s one of the best platforms and employers you will find in this town. God speed!!” Obinna wrote.
He repeated the same message to comedian Eddie Butita who asked Kiss FM for a Ksh1 million monthly salary.
“Dear @kiss100kenya mko na 1 million per month? Price is not negotiable #ikokazikenya,” Butita wrote.
“Hata mimi nilitaka hiyo ikakuwa tricks. Punguza kidogo economy ni mbaya. Cheza na 700 hapo. All the best,” Obinna replied to Butita in a quick rejoinder.
