A Nairobi girl has taken to social media to express her frustration with her married sponsor, exposing the humiliating and secretive nature of their illicit affair.

According to her social media post, the girl's sponsor would meet her at a gate, where he would hand over cash through a middleman, all while trying to avoid detection by his wife.

She described the experience as 'embarrassing' and 'depressing', saying that she was starting to consider alternative ways to make ends meet, including selling her Ka Bamba 50.

Her scathing social media post has sparked a heated debate about the exploitation of vulnerable women by wealthy sponsors.
