Kenyan award-winning comedian Eric Omondi took to Instagram to announce the cancellation of his much-awaited Wife Material Season 2 show. Well, if it's not some marketing strategy, then yes!

According to the 34-year-old, the show that had been scheduled to start today was disrupted by a 'rogue' contestant, and efforts of calming down the situation went futile.

" Unfortunately, one of the contestants went completely and utterly 'Rogue' and despite numerous attempts to control the situation, the atmosphere in the house has not been conducive for the show to continue, " Eric stated.

Eric informed netizens that season three of the reality show will be airing in a short while.

" We say farewell to Season two. Season 3 will start almost immediately.🙏🙏🙏, " he added.

Earlier in March 2021, Wife Material was cancelled by the Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) noting that he had not submitted the said content for classification by the board.

The agency stated that Omondi violated provisions of the Films and Stage Plays Act Cap 222 of the Laws of Kenya.

“No film or class of film shall be distributed, exhibited, or broadcast, either publicly or privately, unless the Board has examined it and issued a certificate of approval in respect thereof,” says the Film Board’s Plays Act.

Alongside Wife Material show contestants, Eric was arrested and later they were all freed on Ksh 50,000.

The agency’s chief added that Omondi’s show risks 'exposing children to harmful content'.
