Kenyan female DJ Pierra Makena is at the center of online criticism after she was video-taped deejaying using a mixer allegedly not connected to the public address system, which was buzzing with music on the background.

The entertainer contracted to deejay at the Jamhuri Day celebration presided over by President Uhuru Kenyatta at Nyayo Stadium in Nairobi on December 12, was seen dancing while “spinning” the turn table in a manner suggesting that she was enjoying the music titled “Kenya Taifa Letu” that was playing from her device.

When the video found its way to social media, hawk-eyed online users posed why Ms Makena was “lying” to people that she was the talent behind the entertainment, yet the connections on her deejaying system sold her out.

The critics argued there was no audio-out wiring system from Ms Makena’s mixer, which, according to them, means there was no way that the music  that was buzzing in the public address speakers  was emanating from her MacBook computer and mixer.

Observers say since President Kenyatta was arriving at the venue, when the video was recorded, there was no way Pierra Makena could be allowed to deejay because officially the live music band was the only entertainment outfit mandated to take over entertainment functions.

Pierra Makena has dismissed her critics saying that they never congratulate her for anything good that she does and are always out to disrepute me.

“I like my haters because they are only concentrating on pulling me down. Never have they pointed out the great things I have done in my 15 years of professional deejaying. Any DJ worth his or her salt will tell you that my deejaying equipment was connected to the public address system. Any good spin-master will tell you that when a DJ’s output clashes with that of a live band, the DJ has to fade out their music, that was what happened, when I dropped the faders,” Pierra Makena said.

“If anything, I am the one who posted the video on my Instagram page. I am not stupid to upload that video when I know I was duping people; I wouldn’t post it if that was the case. Anyway, I owe no one an explanation because none of those people who are trolling me online pay my rent or feed me and my family. Let them continue making noise online while I am depositing money to the bank and paying my bills. In short, what I am telling them is: let us all work hard,” said Ms Makena.
