Kitengela Woman Confesses Viral Video was Fake After Receiving KSh 1M Donations
Kenyans have been left outraged after discovering that a Kitengela woman, whose emotional video recently went viral, fabricated the entire story.
In the video, the woman appeared distressed, holding a baby while pleading with a man—believed to be her husband—not to throw her and her children out. Another child was seen crying beside her, a scene that moved many Kenyans to intervene and offer assistance.
Among those who rallied to her side was comedian Eric Omondi, who, through his Sisi Kwa Sisi Foundation, helped raise about KSh 1 million in donations from well-wishers eager to support the struggling “family.”
However, it has now emerged that the video was staged. The woman has confessed that she and three friends planned the act to solicit money. Shockingly, the man in the clip was not her husband but a passerby they persuaded to participate.
“I want to be honest. The video was recorded on Sunday, and everything was arranged. I have been facing financial challenges, so we thought this was the way out. I sincerely apologize for deceiving Kenyans,” she admitted.
She further revealed that even the children featured in the clip were not hers. Initially, she claimed one was her sister’s child, but it has since been confirmed they were borrowed from friends for the scheme.
The revelation has sparked widespread anger online, with Kenyans condemning the deception and calling for legal action against the woman and her accomplices for exploiting public sympathy and using children in the hoax..
