The Skill Up Mentorship Programme

The theme for the skill mentorship program was to create an avenue for the MCs, event organizers, entertainers, and entrepreneurs to meet, talk, learn, and network. This event attracted crème de la crème of the entertainment industry in Kenya, who explored various aspects of scaling and skilling up. Talk of the talented emcees such as MC Headboy, MC Gitone Mike, Chris Kirwa, MC Kamal, MC Himaz, and more.

Emceeing cuts across a broad range of events, including state functions, corporate events, social events such as weddings & parties, roadshows, and TV hosting. Emceeing is a vibrant and highly competitive sector in the entertainment industry. The art of emceeing the trade demands passion, talent, energy, love for people, and experience to capture people’s attention.

The moderator was well-informed with the hosts and adequately grilled them on relevant topics. The hosts shared how COVID-19 pandemic halted the events-organizing industry. It disrupted the source of income for many but also opened other opportunities, such as online event hosting. This shows the importance of being creative and adaptive to change. Business acumen and professionalism were highlighted as key to longevity in the industry. For instance, the top emcees who attract corporate events can command handsome pay and are highly professional.

Building a good rapport with other players in the event-organizing sector is vital for growth. Social media has enormously revolutionized the industry, and it is a great place to market oneself freely. This program brought together multitalented media personalities with a wealth of experience and knowledge to teach the upcoming MCs.

The program was also graced by leading emcees in state ministries and county forums at government-level functions. This talk exposed us to opportunities to work with government agencies and the rest of the corporate world. It was particularly entertaining to listen and learn from the event that pitched celebrated club, roadshow, and reggae MCeeing gurus such as Mc Sheriff, Mc Gogo, and Mc NattyBoy.

To crown it all, we were fascinated by the inspiring stories shared by the guest speakers regarding their journeys and finding a place as an emcee in the Kenyan market.

Some key takeaways from the event were the need for consistency, professionalism, organization, pricing strategies, and personal branding. One must be innovative and adapt to industry trends to maneuver in the ever-dynamic industry.

Their first conversation was Gerhard ‘innocently’ requesting Jackline to share notes for a class or two he had missed. A classic move. Of course, he could have borrowed the notes from anyone else, but she was gorgeous and focused.

He then looked her up on LinkedIn and chatted her up. I know, right? Who knew LinkedIn would give tinder a run for its money?

Gerhard and Jackline Wedding Teaser Video

Their first date was in April 2018 at Subway Kenyatta Avenue. He asked her to be his girlfriend four months later, just as he was about to leave for Hungary for a 3 months work trip.

Gerhard was in no hurry; he let her brood upon it until his return. He must have played his cards right with the international calls and texting because she received him with a warm embrace at the airport.

What Jackline loves most about Gerhard is that he is a proper gentleman. He never rushed or forced things. He gave her time to understand him, and most importantly, he was intentional about pursuing her till she couldn’t resist his advances.

The Wedding

They had planned to have their wedding in 2021, but COVID happened. More than COVID happened because they also had a huge fallout the same year. Fortunately, their relationship was saved by the mediation of their close friends through an overnight virtual call.

They had their traditional wedding in Jan 2022 and then set out to prepare for their white wedding. The beauty of preparing for their wedding is that they worked as a team to make it a success. This is a strength they plan to lean on throughout their marriage.

They opted not to fundraise for their wedding. The couple held a corporate-like meeting every Sunday evening to prepare for their upcoming big day. Friends and family came in at the tail end to support logistics and finances.

Their only prayer on their wedding day was for the skies to remain clear; it didn’t rain.
Their honeymoon itinerary included the Dubai Marina, the Arabian Desert tour, and then wind it down will the cool ocean breeze of Mombasa.

The groom appreciates Thelocco Men Suits for hooking him up with the perfect wedding Tuxedo and hassle-free shopping experience. He had initially intended to wear a white wedding suit but eventually fell for the black tuxedo.

The now happily married couple attributes the success of their wedding and marriage to God’s grace, love, early preparation, and teamwork.
