Aslay returned to school after the show, only to discover that he was in trouble for missing classes for three days.
He found himself facing a confrontation with a teacher who was prepared to take disciplinary action against him.
However, Aslay decided to resolve the situation by offering a bribe to the teacher in order to avoid punishment.
"Nilisafiri nikaenda Mtwara nikapiga changu kimeo nikapata kama laki tatu nne hivi. Nilipofika hapo sijaonekana shule kama siku tatu hivi, mm sasa mwalimu alitaka kunipiga nikamminyia kama thelathini," Aslay said.
