Esther and Ezekiel won the top prize worth $50,000 for showcasing their exceptional music talent in the 2019 edition of the EAGT show that happened in Nairobi, Kenya.
Katson says that they already paid US$37,000 of the US$50,000 they won in Kenya’s capital Nairobi.
Their aunt Gladys was the one helping with everything. Their mother and father were not involved at the stage. We cannot just send US$50000 to minors.
You know where there is money everybody gets involved. What happens is the winners are paid half (US$25000) of the money immediately.
But for them we did not know whether to pay the mother or the father. But the father came into the picture and we paid him
They are confusing for us and its hard to come into the media and say they won, but family conflict. They are our ambassadors. When they claimed we never paid a penny, we still kept quiet. Now we are forced to say because there is a lot going on about us out there.
We did not know whether to send the balance to Canada or to the father again. We also need accountability for the amount paid so we can deposit the balance,” He said
