Jovial responds to critics after dance with Rashid Abdalla went viral

Jovial, Mombasa-based singer has been heavily criticized following her dance with Rashid Abdalla during his 40th birthday celebration that took place on Sunday in Mombasa.

Reacting to the criticism in a post seen recently, the Unanikosha hitmaker narrated that many of the trolls were women who were trying to project their insecurities onto her over an innocent performance.

According to the singer, the whole act was part of her job and nothing more, adding that the birthday celebrant and his wife, Lulu Hassan, are her bosses.

“The insults on the trending photo of me at work…. Okay, I’m just seeing women projecting their insecurities on an innocent act. Mumepata kisababu cha kufungua roho! You can tell they are dealing with a lot in their homes! The couple are my bosses. Those who know the series know better,” she wrote.

Jovial told the naysayers to focus more on putting their homes in order instead of criticizing her job and finding fault in how she decides to perform.

“Fix your homes and stop using me as an excuse. I’m an entertainer and I was doing my job. By the way, I was paid very good money. Cheers to many more. For more bookings contact the number on my bio,” she added.

Social media was sent into a frenzy, with many questioning the songbird integrity considering Rashid wife’s presence, after the videos of jovial dancing with the media personality first went viral.

In the circulated video, Rashid’s wife, Lulu is captured coming between Jovial and her husband as she wrapped her arms around her him, carrying on with the dance as the crowd cheered them on.

It is safe to say the celebrated media personality did not take Jovial’s performance personally as she went ahead to thank her for gracing her husband’s birthday occasion and making it worthwhile.

“I can’t thank you enough Jovial. You are destined for greatness, apart from being your bosses we are your number one fans. Keep on flying our flag high we love you dada. Keep on keeping on. Vocal 100%, Performances 100%, Presence 100%,” she wrote.
