Maina Kageni, a presenter at Classic 105, is facing criticism from the gay community in Kenya. According to Citizen Weekly, members of the community allege that Kageni is using their name to receive funds from abroad, claiming he is championing their rights while actually enriching himself.
Kageni has been under scrutiny for his sexual orientation and has recently displayed a flashy lifestyle, including spending Ksh 800,000 on a lunch date with friends. The source of his newfound wealth is unclear.
The Gay and Lesbian Coalition of Kenya believes Kageni is soliciting funds from abroad in the name of supporting gay rights in Kenya. This has led to backlash from the community, who feel he is misusing their cause for personal gain.
