Mutoko’s Good Deeds
A lot happened last week, especially in the life of Kiss 100 presenter Caroline Mutoko. One of her posts on Facebook brought her more than she had bargained for, leading to deletion. Several Anti-Mutoko pages were created with some of these getting more than 20,000 likes. This was not the first time the presenter came under attack from Kenyans. Though last week, was the worst she had seen yet, some of her past posts have taken her through a similar experience.
However, most Kenyans fail to see the other side of the presenter, the humane one, and perhaps as a reminder to some of the good deeds she has done in the past, Mutoko brought smiles into several people’s faces.
On Friday, Mutoko posted to her Facebook fans the details of a lost kid,Derick Aduodi, who had been picked up by a good Samaritan. She requested anyone who may know the parent to contact a certain number, and sure enough, the boy and mum were re-united a few hours later.
On the same Friday, Mutoko decided to promote a few businesses, by giving them free advertising on her page of 180,000 likes. She posted what they sold, and their contact details.
Some of the posts include:
