Choppa 'Stereo'

A man with a high-pitched voice cannot be a substitute for a woman but I know that it was more of carelessness and incompetence somewhere at UTL and WBS than a deliberate attempt at that scenario. The choice of Choppa as the host of UTL’s ‘Win 60 Million Shillings’ promotion show on WBS is a bad one. Yes, he is versatile and his attempts at humour are commendable but his voice is the wrong one. Now, one would say that that should not matter but we are talking 60 million shillings plus the airtime fees and that is a lot of money to be splashed on hanging loose ends. A high-pitched male voice turns people off, period. Let’s remember that people know that a winner will be contacted with a phone number that they already know, at least those that have TV’s. So why tune in to a programme to that will just irritate them. Of course this point of view may not be shared by everyone, especially Choppa and WBS, but they are not the ones paying out the money. UTL, tie up or cut off all of those loose ends and pay the right amount for the right thing.
