August 24, 2021, marked the second time in a week that Magbee254 Msanii, a young man from Nairobi, was spotted in the city centre with a billboard advertising his search for a sugar mummy.

Msanii, who has been met with disgust and ridicule from many, remains undeterred in his quest. His placard now bears a more elaborate message, appealing to celebrities like Eric Omondi to help him find a sponsor.

However, Eric Omondi's team has denied Msanii's claims of being willing to help launch his music career, citing the studio's closure due to a court case.

Several men have publicly criticized Msanii, questioning his courage in proudly displaying his intentions. Radio presenters Kamene Goro and Jalang'o also weighed in, advising him to change his location and seek out more affluent areas of the city.
