Churchill show has become the second Youtuber in Kenya to get over a million subscribers prompting him to be awarded the 'Gold Play Button'.

However, Churchill did not receive his Gold Play Button as it had gone missing under unclear circumstances en-route to Kenya.

Speaking about the incident, Churchill exclusively told Mpasho he sadly said,

'Can you imagine it was stolen and today is my birthday?'

Churchill who is famously known as the God-father of comedy in Kenya is celebrating his birthday and the award wouldn't have come at a better time.

Dorothy Ooko, Head Of Communications & Public Affairs, Sub-Saharan Africa at Google said they have ordered another one.

'You might wonder why we did not open the box.

As we ordered the button the gold was stolen so we have ordered another button.

When the new one comes, we will use it as another chance to celebrate Churchill.'
