Eric Omondi steps in
Being a fashion icon in the industry, Eric Omondi revealed the shoes will not be cheap either.
He gave an example of Eric Omondi Leather which allegedly cost around Ksh 50,000 per hour to hire.
Money raised through the shoe auction will however fund Stivo and his wife. With this, the singer will manage to carter for his basic needs, medical and preferred choice of business.
Eric’s new move comes at a time when Stivo’s contract with Men in Business (MIB) was terminated without notice.
As seen on the post shared by MIB, the management gave Stivo Simple 35 days to respond to the termination of their contract, asking for his cooperation during the period.
“Termination of the contract will be effective as of 31st July hence we have 35 days of tabling both parties’ interest for a smooth transition. During the process, all parties will be paused and a lawful process of events will be followed in accordance (sic),” the statement added.
Stivo’s wife, on the other hand, blamed MIB for using the singer and not paying him his dues.
“Manager wake anampatia stress, yeye anajikondea tu, wakati tulikuwa nae alikuwa ameungaunga tu sasa hivi ni stress ya manager wake, pesa zake na hizo account zake. Si yeye ndio anatumia, si yeye ndo anazimanage yani kila kitu manager wake ndio anamanage,” Grace Atieno confessed in recent interview.
