Kenyan musician Jimmy Gait has revealed why he has taken a break in his once blossoming music career.

At 39 years, the artist feels that he has done enough for himself, and would now want to give back to Kenyans.

Speaking exclusively to Mpasho, Jimmy Gait said that he had enough time to make headlines in the showbiz industry, and is now focused on helping people. 

"I am no longer impressed by celebrity status. I want to be celebrated because of my impact and not the clout around me. I am not interested in showbiz, People only care that you care about them," he said. 

According to the Furifuri hitmaker, his aim is to create 10,000 jobs for Kenyans, so he started an Agency for posting people for jobs overseas. 

In his new venture, Jimmy Gait helps Kenyans to get jobs in Middle-East countries and others such as USA, Canada and UK. 

"Everyone goes through many phases in life, that is what am very passionate about now. I thought of what I can do to help people get good jobs, so I teamed up with good agencies abroad, where we are able to get people good jobs. My vision in the next 2 years is to create 10,000 jobs and success stories," he explained.

With rising cases of Kenyans being mistreated in the Middle East, the gospel singer terms himself as a trustworthy person to help them. 

"I decided to provide a platform that people can trust. There is a lot of lying, fraud in such businesses. So I thought of setting up a system that people can trust. It gives me satisfaction to help families. When they are on the other side and call to thank me, I feel good." 

In his music career, Jimmy Gait has entertained many people but has fallen victim to abuse from the same fans that he was singing to. 

However, after taking a step back in the showbiz industry, the singer has come to terms with what happened to him. 

"It was an experience that was I had to go through at that time, and I learnt to be positive and appreciate myself. I can't quit music. I have a studio where I have been recording songs, it is just the time for their release that has not come."
