"Kuzima comments? Sikutaka mambo mengi maanake niliona inanibua hisia mingi. Kuna watu wansema ulifanya vibaya kwenda na chopper, harusi ni ya wenyewe. So nikaona staki mixed reactions maanake nataka nitulie tu na pia nieke picha nzuri.

"[Switching off the comment section? I noticed there were mixed reactions since there were people who said I didn't need to board the chopper to the event since it was not my wedding. I didn't want anything to do with people's reactions and that is why I played cool since I wanted to set a good example]," Butita said.

Butita denies outshining Akothee

Butita has refuted claims that he tried to outshine Akothee at her wedding by stating that the singer is wealthy and attending her wedding requires one to be outstanding.

He explained that he arrived in a chopper to show her the respect that she deserves and that it would not have been appropriate to use a taxi for such an event.

When asked if he owned the chopper, he responded sarcastically to the bloggers by asking them what they thought about the ownership of the machine.
