Eric Omondi is one guy who has been celebrated for his comedic contributions to the entertainment scene.

He is a celebrated comedian not only in Kenya but worldwide with successful tours in Dubai, Dallas, Vegas and East African countries.

To appreciate his good work, his hometown Kisumu has decided to honour him by naming a road after him.

Eric Omondi took to social media to announce the great news saying,

Thank you so much Kisumu County Government for this GREAT HONOR 😰😰😰...I will forever CHERISH this🙏🙏🙏 I promise to make you even prouder!!! I will endeavor to lift the name of my County Kisumu and Country Kenya🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪 higher and Higher. This is my home, My town, My City, My Country.

Other than practising his Jaluo skill of bragging, he wanted to let others know it doesn't matter where you come from because your story can take a turn for the better.

May this be an encouragement to every young person in this country...That it doesn't matter who you are or where you come from, with belief and Hardwork...YOU CAN ACHIEVE ANYTHING 🙏🙏🙏🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪

The last two years have been nothing but successful for Eric -okay other than losing his girlfriend, Miss Chanty. Congratulations Eric.
