Video:The true history of life About MCA Tricky of Churchill Show You didn't Know about...Tricky SAANA!

23 year-old MCA Tricky knows the real life of a "Chokora" (street urchin), for he has lived it for close to three years.

MCA, Member of Chokora Assembly if you like, Tricky was thrust into the harsh reality of harsh street life at the tender age of 12, then merely a student from Ikungu Primary School in Makindu, Mombasa. 

His peers convinced him to accompany them to Nairobi in search of greener pastures without the knowledge of his parents.

He was idle, frustrated and needed to survive so he agreed, only to realise that life in the city was harder than he expected. 

 “For three years, I experienced the vagaries of street life in Nairobi’s Saika estate, during which I worked as a vegetable errand boy to and from Gikomba market to survive,” said Tricky with an interview with SDE Pulse.

Life offered very little to laugh about but somehow he chose to embrace comedy as a vehicle to numb the misery of harsh street-life, encouraged by members of little-known Barikiwa set book group who often staged show in various colleges.

Come February, Churchill Show came calling and this young man beat everyone in the auditions.

The last born in a family of three, MCA Tricky hopes to become a mentor to the less privileged including aspiring comedians, advising them to follow their hearts’ yearnings. 

 "Nothing comes easy; it is important to give it your all if you hope to succeed. It is important to keep in mind that life is a battlefield and not a playing ground and being here for a short time we need to strive and make the best of it.” MCA Tricky
