He wanted his children to understand his situation to help them avoid potential emotional distress that could arise from being trolled or ridiculed by their peers. Jigan’s daughter is no longer a baby, and he felt it was the right time to have an open conversation about his trademark walk. He advised his daughter to tell her friends that her father’s unusual gait is his signature style and that it brings in money for him. He wants to help his children fight the trauma that can cause them while growing up.

He advised his daughter to tell her friends that her father’s unusual gait is his signature style and that it brings in money for him.

“You are no longer a baby, let me give you this story before you come across it. In case, your classmates or your friends in school are asking you ‘Why is your daddy working like that?, Why is your daddy doing Tamurege?

“Tell them that’s your daddy’s logo. Tell them that the Tamurege is what is bringing money for my daddy”. He said.

Captioning the post, he wrote:“Helping them to fight the trauma it can cause for them while growing up!”
