On August 25, 2020, a series of photos shared by Mike Oliver sparked a heated debate about the relationships between Kenyan women and foreign men.

Oliver's photos, which showed him with nearly 20 women he had met during his visit to Kenya, raised questions about the reasons behind these relationships.

According to experts, some Kenyan women may be drawn to foreign men due to misconceptions about their financial status.

Others may be seeking a better life abroad, while some may be motivated by a desire to have children with a foreign partner.

Additionally, some women may be using relationships with foreign men as a means to secure residency or citizenship in another country.

Lastly, some women may be driven by desperation for love and affection.
