Kenyan gospel musician Ekodydda has publicly defended content creator Birdman , calling on Nairobi official Geoffrey Mosiria to support young people using their talents to earn a living instead of criticising them. In a video shared on his Instagram page, Eko Dydda expressed disappointment with Mosiria, accusing him of frequently targeting young Kenyans who are trying to create opportunities for themselves through unique skills and creative ideas.“I feel so bad that you keep attacking young people who are trying to build themselves and support themselves through their talents.”
Birdman has a special gift
Ekodydda described Birdman’s talent as rare and deserving of recognition rather than ridicule.
“Birdman has come up with an idea of communicating with birds. You can’t even solve issues with fellow human beings, yet you want to fight someone with such a unique gift.” He argued that Birdman’s ability is not something an ordinary person can easily replicate and said Kenyans should appreciate people with exceptional abilities instead of trying to pull them down.
Call for government recognition.Ekodydda went further, suggesting that Birdman deserves support from government institutions responsible for nurturing talent. “If possible, Birdman should be supported by your ministry. He should even be considered as a brand ambassador instead of being fought.” He also suggested that Birdman’s unique ability could benefit Kenya’s tourism sector.“As a government, he should be given a role in tourism or a similar sector because his talent can attract tourists.” Eko Dydda // instagram
Let’s celebrate unique abilities
Ekodydda concluded by urging Kenyans to rally behind Birdman and celebrate people with extraordinary gifts. He congratulated the viral entertainer for remaining committed to his craft despite criticism and encouraged him to keep going.
“As a country, we should support someone who has something special instead of bringing down people with unique abilities. Keep up the good work, Birdman. Big up.”
