Popular content creator Baba Talisha, who gained fame after aiding in the fundraising of late TikToker Brian Chira, has landed a well-paying job days after accusing a section of Kenyans of being behind the loss of his TikTok account, which had amassed one million followers.
The viral TikToker was unveiled as the brand influencer for Dama Mobile Spares on Monday, May 13.
“And more blessings. Nimekaribishwa huku DAMA Mobile Spares with the CEO, Madam Damaris Wa Dama Spares Original. Newest brand influencer of Dama Mobile Spares,” Baba Talisha said.
Damaris Muriithi, the CEO of Dama Mobile Spares, welcomed the entertainer to her company as she announced the deal on social media.
“Congratulations and welcome on board, Baba Talisha. Our newest brand influencer. Karangu Muraya, karibisha mgeni huku kwetu na umpatie chai very fast,” she posted.
Baba Talisha recently suffered a setback after losing his TikTok account.
This came shortly after celebrating reaching one million followers on the short video platform.
Confirming the unfortunate news on his Instagram page, Baba Talisha posted a screenshot of his TikTok account with one million followers, indicating that it had been banned.
“Life goes on,” Baba Talisha wrote on the post.
In a recent interview, he claimed that certain individuals did not take kindly to his achievement of hitting a million followers and subsequently reported his account for violating TikTok’s guidelines. Despite this setback, he expressed his intention to appeal the decision.
“It was reported overnight. Initially, there were seven violations, but five have been restored, with two remaining, both related to comments. TikTok has contacted me regarding the verification process, but unfortunately, I was unable to complete it yesterday. I have attempted to appeal the ban, but it appears that the decision stands,” he explained.
Before losing his account, Baba Talisha had celebrated reaching the one million followers milestone after several months on the platform.
