"I started dancing when I was still a high school student, and since then I've always loved it," Khamala told TUKO.co.ke.
"When I first heard of TikTok, I didn't think much of it because I didn't think it would benefit me and if anything, I didn't know how to use it. Later I learnt about but I was unable to join. One day, when I was painting in Nambale, Busia county, my boss offered to show me how it is done and opened it for me," said Khamala.

When he landed on TikTok, Khamala saw different content creators engaged in different things, and when he saw some were dancing, he knew that he had found his niche.

Although Khamala has been doing a good job so far, he is facing some challenges with his content creation.

"First of all, the phone has to be paid for on a daily basis, which means that whenever I'm unable to pay for it, I cannot do content. Paintings jobs do not not come by everyday, which means that Iam also unable to buy bundles to post," he said.
"There is also the issue of network, which really disturbs me as there is insufficient network for me to do content creation," he added.
