Popular comedian Eric Omondi has addressed a video that made rounds on social media showing him swimming unclothed with children at river Turkwel Lodwar, Turkana.
Omondi was among the guests invited to celebrate the court verdict that upheld the reelection of Turkana Governor, Josphat Nanok.
The clip landed him into trouble with Kenyans expressing their outrage over the video.
Through his social media, Omondi admitted that he was in the wrong stating that he did not mean to offend anyone.
"I have been a comedian all my life... Many are the times that I have errored. Today was one of those days. I have offended so many. I did not in any way intend to offend anyone. I am deeply sorry for that," he posted on Instagram.
His apology was well received by Kenyans who urged Eric to learn from his mistakes.
Omondi is still camping in Turkana waiting for ester show.
The High court on Tuesday validated the declaration of Josphat Nanok as the winner of the Turkana governor election in August last year.
Judge Stephen Riechi of Lodwar law court held that the petition filed Petroleum CS John Munyes lacked sufficient evidence to warrant nullification of Nanok's win.
