Celebrities have often chosen to keep off political matters, but this time round, many are taking a stand and publicly declaring who they are supporting. Are they or aren't they supposed to? That has so far been the debate online. We have seen the likes of Grace Msalame, Comedian Oga Obinna publicly declare who their candidate of choice is. The two are Uhuru Kenyatta's supporters and they have been campaigning for him on social media.
Well, Tanzanian actress-cum-model Wema Sepetu, Diamond Platnumz' ex-girlfriend has been heavily criticised on social media after she congratulated Uhuru Kenyatta for 'retaining his seat even before the official IEBC results are out.
Tallying is still ongoing and the results are yet to be announced.
"Nilisema sipost kitu mpaka Siku ya Premier Ya Heaven Sent yangu.... But This News Got me Screaming..... Viva Uhuru.... Viva.....!!! Happy for My Beloved Kenyans.... Mnajua venye nawapendaga....!!!! ??? Congrats Mr. Prezident..!!!" read Wema's post.
Her followers came out guns blazing and some even advised her to stick to Tanzanian politics and mind her own business.
