Andrew recalls his most memorable television moment as handling a real gun during a DSTV Africa Magic Originals Film job. He also enjoyed driving around in the various luxury cars on set. Despite the fact that Mustafa is a household name, little is known about the actor. This article dug deeper to learn more about the talented comedian, and here are five Mustafa facts you probably didn't know.
Mustafa is not from the Coast
Because of Mustafa's accent in the Mother In Law series, you probably assumed he was from the coast or had lived there for a while. That is untrue, as Andrew Muthure was born in Kangemi and raised in the Kibera slums. According to the talented actor, he, like the rest of us, only visits the coastal region when on vacation. When asked how he got his Swahili accent, Dru explained that he lived in Tanzania for two years a while back, during which time his language skills and swag improved.
Andrew Muthure is a Marketing degree holder
Given his background, you'd think Dru would have studied acting; however, this is not the case. Mustafa received an undergraduate degree in Marketing from African Nazarene University, despite the fact that he admitted that his heart was always with TV and radio. Furthermore, Mustafa stated that when he was in college, there were only two universities that offered theatre studies, and he had not considered acting as a profession at the time. Mustafa has never worked as a marketer; however, he explains that his marketing skills come in handy when handling presentations and speaking to his audience on TV or radio.
Mustafa got his first girlfriend very young
Mustafa revealed in an interview with one of the major media outlets that he began dating while still in primary school. When he was in class eight, his first girlfriend was a form two student. When he was younger, he enjoyed dating older women, according to Dru. Mustafa is currently in a committed relationship and has an adorable eight-year-old daughter.
Andrew was an assistant director
Mustafa, my mother-in-law's former assistant director, worked on the Makutano Junction Local TV series. During that time, he learned about the Mother in law's ongoing auditions, and he decided to give it a shot, and he was cast. Dru describes the Mother in Law actors and actresses as "jovial talented individuals" with whom he enjoys working.
Mustafa Hustled long for his Radio Job
The fifth fact about Mustafa is that his job at Hot 96 FM did not fall into his lap and that he had to work hard for it for nearly 12 years. According to the popular actor, he went on several radio interviews without success before finally getting a call back from Hot 96 Fm one day. Mustafa began his radio career in 2015 after being chosen as the best candidate in a second round interview.
