The self proclaimed President of African comedy Eric Omondi just dropped a hint for the new season of Wife Material.

This will be the third season and third try for the funnyman to find a wife .

Dubbed as 'The African Edition ',the new season will see contestants from Ethiopia, South Sudan, Rwanda, Nigeria and Kenya.

Kenya’s former Films and Classification Board chair Ezekiel Mutua was once on Eric’s neck, calling for the banning of the show.

 Ezekiel termed the show “immoral” and even had Eric arrested in March for producing and distributing the show.

Asked by his followers whether he was really looking for a wife,Eric said he was truly searching for a spouse.

"Yes, I was looking for a wife. Whether I get a wife or not, I’m not sure, but I’m looking for a wife. It’s not for comedy; it’s not funny, not a laughing matter," he said.

The show will start officially on Tuesday next week and will be shot in his new Karen Mansion.
