The drama dates back to April, when Mammito released a comedy skit parodying the flamboyant preacher, featuring exaggerated scenes of devotees seeking prayers and dramatic "deliverances." The video drew both laughter and criticism, with Owuor's followers particularly unhappy about the portrayal.
Prophet Owuor follower's claim on Mammito backfires
Five months later, one of the minister's followers decided to revisit the issue with a pointed social media post, suggesting that Mammito's career had suffered since the skit aired.
"Kuna wakati Mamito alitoa video fulani akiimitate The Mighty One. Nilimwonya, but wafuasi wake waliniosha na matusi. You called me names, sijawaipona! 😭 Anyway, tangu hiyo siku, sidhani kama Mamito amewaitrend tena. Sijui kama aliacha comedy, staki kujua. Anafaa akuje tumfanyie maombi ya kuvunja madhabahu, yaani maombi ya amani. 🤣🤣," the follower wrote.
The post was meant to serve as a told-you-so moment, but Kenyans online had absolutely none of it.

The comment section quickly became a battleground, with netizens rushing to set the record straight and, in many cases, dragging the Owuor follower in the process.
Jackline Mukuna said:
"Pray for yourself first uwache kuvaa mikeka."
Blessed James said:
"Mammito is still rising and making comedy."
Rachael Mutegi said:
"She's trending more than before. Wewe jiombee."
Joy Lyne said:
"Then you have not seen her latest yooh arise and visit."
Lily Muthoni said:
"She trends daily."
Theresa said:
"Akuna ...umeona content zake kweli..wewe endelea kuvaa magunia."
The consensus among commenters was clear: not only is Mammito still very much active, but she appears to be thriving. Several users pointed to her recent content as proof that the comedian's relevance has not dimmed in the slightest.
The episode is a reminder of just how quickly Kenyan social media can flip a narrative, especially when someone publicly takes aim at a beloved entertainer without getting their facts right first.
