Former Churchill show Comedian Nicki Big Fish was attacked in a bar while he shot a prank that went wrong.

In a video shared on his You Tube channel on Tuesday August 4, 2020, the comedian was assaulted alongside his camera-man, who was recording the prank with a hidden camera.

Bigfish had gone to a closed bar where a group of young men were drinking and chewing khat despite bars being closed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

In the video, a yellow tape is seen at the entrance of the bar, probably indicating that the premise had been closed down due to the government’s directive.

Nick Big Fish is seen moving past the tape, and starts narrating how the revelers were defying Covid-19 directives as he slowly approached them.

The men sat watching, pensively, before the situation turned chaotic as a beer bottle was thrown at Bigfish and missed him by mere inches.

One of the men then stood and broke a beer bottle on the floor before accosting Bigfish, leaving the comedian shaken.

The comedian quickly stepped back behind the tape and made a quick exit.

Realizing that Bigfish was being recorded during his interrupted narration, the men turned their attention to the camera-man who stood at the other end of the room.

They roughed him up and demanded to know why he was recording them, even as the cameraman desperately pleaded with them claiming that he came alone.

This is the third prank by the comedian that has gone wrong.

The comedian in May this year got himself in another tough situation when he did another prank on people who escaping from quarantine centers.

One of his crew was roughed up by another man whom he had approached alleging that they were looking for him after he had escaped from quarantine.

Weeks after the incident, the comedian had been hospitalised after being beaten by some two men in another prank that went wrong.

He added, “One day early morning, I sent a message, saying “3 months from today,  I will leave that office”. I told friends and everyone in my life but they did not believe me. They were all in denial. I didn’t tell anybody anything, even Kamene came to know the other day and she is devastated.”

While negotiating his exit deal, Kibe revealed that he was inebriated. He did also praise his former co-host with whom he worked with at NRG Radio.

During the show, Jalang’o confirmed that he was going to replace Kibe at Kiss FM. He said that he will be joining Kamene Goro starting Monday morning.

Popular Comedian  Zainabu Zeddy has exposed the man who she alleges is behind the recent depression among Churchill show artists.

Taking to her Instagram account, Zeddy has linked Churchill Show Creative Director Victor Ber to the recent deaths of two comedians, Njenga Mswahili and Kasee.

Zeddy says that the two died of depression which was caused by Victor Ber.

According to Zeddy, Victor is heartless and often takes advantage of being the person who decides who appears in the show which airs on NTV every Sunday to frustrate the people he doesn’t like.

Zeddy detailed that one can go for rehearsals for three days and the director won’t even have the courtesy to tell them that their jokes are not “funny” or you won’t be performing.

Ber is further accused of going to the extent of taking a comedian’s name off the list of performing artists minutes to live performance.

Some comedians, Zeddy said, had been suspended for no reasons.

She claimed that Churchill Show comedian Joseph Musyoki Kivindu alias Kasee, who was on Sunday found dead on the roadside in Kinoo, Kiambu County, was a troubled man.

According to Zeddy, Kasee had made several attempts to appear in several Churchill Show episodes without success.

She claims that after she raised alarm over Kasee’s condition Ber and other Churchill show managers promised Kasee that he would perform in Machakos only to disappoint him in the last minute.

Below is her long Instagram post.
