From the talk and the number of the Facebook groups propping the contestants, it looks like its going to be a close one. It wont be like Idols East Africa where Eric was in the finals with Nicolette but it was clear he was going to win. That last show was merely a formality! This time the compe is tight.

With 3 days to go, who do you think is going to take it home? Share your thoughts in the comments.

Update
Saturday was definitely not Maureen’s night! First Juliana told her that she should fire her fashion stylist and then she got the least number of votes. She left TPF3 that night.

The Sunday finale saw Alpha Rwirangira crowned Tusker Project Fame 3 Winner. Kenya’s Ng’ang’alito came in 2nd, Uganda’s Caroline 3rd and Kenya’s Patricia 4th.

 CHRISTIAN ROBERT RWIRANGIRAIt doesn’t matter!” Other than the butchering of MoTown hits, thats the only thing I remember from Sunday’s show. There were are the likes Patricia who did well but that is besides the point. After Juliana commented about Christian’s performance all he had to say was “It doesn’t matter!” Ian gave him a deserved msomo after which Christian was all apologetic and humble. Will he go home this week or will the ladies save him again? Share your thoughts in the comments.
