He joined Garissa Teachers Training College where he trained as a PI teacher.

“When I was called to the institution it did not go well with me since i wanted to be a comedian, but I had no option but to join. While in the institution I joined Drama club where I was a celebrity and performed in many events including a graduation ceremony where Hon Duale came I entertained him and he gave me 5,000 where he told me that I am a product of Churchill’s comedy show,” he said.

Mkenya said he had an opportunity to travel to Thailand to teach English where he taught from 2017-2020

“While I was teaching in Thailand i was still acting, Since there was free Wifi I started doing online short clips on Facebook where i got many views and comments.I got encouraged and that is how i became popular,” he said.

He says he wants to inspire seven Million people to think towards the positive direction of life.

“I walked 47 kilometers to celebrate the good work of KDF., I walked from Kitale to Soy by educating, entertaining, and preaching peace. Each Kilometer represented one KDF officer. I want to use my talents to benefit myself and all Kenyans,” he said.

He encourages youths to join acting saying it can help them put food on the table.
