Speaking to Clouds TV’s Shilawadu, the father of three said that the energy drink was supposed to be in circulation on Idd but its brand ambassador who is his friend and singer Ommy Dimpoz fell ill and so they had to stop the whole process.

“Mo Faya zilitakiwa ziingie mtaani toka Idd lakini tumepata mtihani kidogo, mtihani tulioupata ni kwamaba balozi wetu anaumwa sana, nasikitika kusema hivyo kwa sababu hali yake si nzuri lakini kila siku kunakuwa na uhafadhali,” said Alikiba.

He went ahead and stated that as soon as Ommy Dimpoz is well and back to his feet, the product will be officially released for circulation.

“Hali yake ikiwa sawa wakati tunazitambulisha anatkiwa awepo. Tunahitaji hali yake iwe sawa, tunatamani awepo,” he added.
