Tanzanian comedian Idris Sultan spent nights behind bars after being arrested and charged with cybercrime last month.

“I know how many times I have made you go through tough times, I have made many sad, many mad and many cried all because they loved me too much,” he said.

“I cannot promise to be different but I can promise to be bigger and better. I love you and thank you for the great strength you give me. Asanteni sana 😍.”

The comedian has also signed a new deal with a betting company.
