Because Of High Taxes, We Cannot Afford To Laugh – Kenyans Tell Patrick Salvador

Posted by: Eninu William in Entertainment December 22, 2023

Ugandan comedian Patrick Salvador was left stunned and bewildered after Kenyans rejected his upcoming comedy show there. Apparently, this was not his own making but rather the Kenyan government according to these people.

The man from Ombokolo had a show in Nairobi. However, the people notified the organizers that they wouldn’t be attending because of the country’s tough economic conditions. Because of the high taxes, they do not have the luxury to laugh. This left the comedian shocked because laughing has become a luxury in some countries.

“I had a gig in Kenya cancelled bse the fans told the organisers that they don’t have the luxury to laugh bse of the state of affairs of the country in regards Taxes … I was like eh .. laughing has now become a luxury in some counties .. Hooooo,” he said.

Apparently, the comedian enjoys a widespread fan base in the East African country. It was, therefore, shocking for him to see that the people turned his show down.

Meanwhile, ever since William Ruto was elected President last year, the country has experienced several economic setbacks. This has seen some sections of the public disappointed with the self-styled hustler. They expected him to emancipate them from economic malnutrition.

It should be recalled that Salvador recently went on a rant against Uganda Revenue Authority(URA). This was because of the tax body’s unfavorable tax policies in the entertainment industry. He accused them of being the reason why Alex Muhangi stopped organizing weekly Comedy Store shows.
