Moreover, Salasya claimed that he will soon become a media house on his own due to the huge social media following he is currently enjoying.
“I will soon be a media house because of a huge following by Kenyans. Keep following, keep commenting, and keep sharing what you see is good for you,” Salasya stated.
Salasya’s content creation
Salasya has been giving digital content creators a run for their money after he joined the industry in what was initially meant to be for fun.
In October 2024, the lawmaker took to his official Instagram account and disclosed the amount of money he was making from his YouTube channel.
The Democratic Action Party of Kenya (DAP-K) MP on Monday, October 28, 2024, appealed to his followers to help him find a white cougar while flaunting YouTube royalties.
The youthful parliamentarian stated that the amount of money he makes after monetizing his channel is a lot and that he needs a white woman aged 45 years and below with whom they can enjoy the royalties together.
He went on to say that currently, he uses the royalties to purchase chicken feeds.
“Sahizi pesa ya chakula ya kuku iko in dollars munipeko form ya mzungu mumama mzee wa 45 yrs and below sasa hizi dollars ni mingi siezi maliza peke yangu,” Salasya disclosed.
At the time, the lawmaker had made USD 127.87, an equivalent of Ksh16,500.34.
