Only one person is safe from his parody videos
While Munya has made parodies about some royal family members, he says the late Queen is the only person safe from his comedy treatment.
He told the Evening Standard that while some of his followers complained to him about the Monarch’s death closing banks and cancelling hospital appointments, he simply wouldn’t go there.
He said: “My job is to sit down and listen, and when I feel I’m able to convey how people are feeling and make them feel represented – that’s when I act.”
