There was a drummist next to Samidoh who happily performed with him, and he captioned the post:
"Supporting a fellow one man guitar in the streets of Dublin Ireland."
A little mzungu girl was also seen dancing next to where he was performing, also entertaining Kenyans.
The musician's fans nicknamed her Njeri since she loved mugithi.
Some fans of the artiste wondered why he never gave his Kenyan fans a street performance.
Others advised him to quit his police job and fully lean into his career as a musician.

Here is what they had to say:
Shemic🇰🇪🇺🇸:
Ama Samidoh aliresign uaskari akaimbange kwa streets UK.
sharlshee
If I was going to work…. safari ingeishia hapa 😂😂😂 why are you not on my side of UK?
annruth:
"I know a Njeri when I see one. The way she's vibing."
Wairimu Wa Wanjiku:
"Huyu ammenda kuimba kwa barabara 🤨 majuu na huku nyumbani we have to pay for his shows 🤨? Wantaam musician!"
Was Samidoh deployed?
In other news, after a video of the crooner leading cheers in shouting "wantam" surfaced on social media, it landed him in hot water.
The term suggests a phrase invented by former deputy president Rigathi Gachagua, referring to President William Ruto being removed from office following his first term.
Samidoh's actions reportedly violated police rules, which worried his superiors.
Reports stated that top officials at Jogoo House saw the viral video and initiated disciplinary action.
He was therefore moved from the Central Region Police Headquarters to the Anti-Stock Theft Unit (ASTU) in Gilgil, Nakuru county.
Apart from the move, Samidoh is now under official disciplinary inquiry.
With Inspector General Douglas Kanja's final decision, possible consequences depending on the outcome may include a warning, fine, demotion, or even termination.
Samidoh posted a picture on May 29, showing he was in Bristol, United Kingdom.
The artiste wore black and grey sweatpants and trainers and showed his trademark smile to the camera. Beside him was a British police car.
He shared a revolutionary message by Thomas Jefferson as his caption.
The quote talked about injustice and resistance.
