DJ Pierra is one of the many Kenyan celebrities with a tight security team.

She was forced to cover every aspect of her security when it came to performances following a frightening incident that occurred while she was interacting with fans.

DJ Pierra revealed that she had just concluded a fiery performance and was interacting with fans and taking selfies when a man in a bulky jacket approached her. He then flashed his gun from underneath his jacket and signalled her to follow him. Scared, she ran for safety to a club bouncer.

“I pretended that I had not understood him and looked away. I knew that if I acknowledged him or tried to decode his signal he would do something dangerous. I quickly made my way to the club bouncer who was nearest to me and stuck by him until I was safe. That is the day I learnt the importance of having tight security,” she told Parents Magazine during an interview.

“I always have two security guys in every gig I go to, whether provided by the club or myself. My small brother and personal assistant are always in every show to ensure I am safe,” she added.
