On August 5, 2019, Karen Nyamu, a lawyer and Director at Nairobi Water and Sewerage Company, was seen smoking weed at the Koth Biro football tournament finals held at Umeme Grounds in Ziwani.
She was casually dressed in a pink hoodie, black pants, and sunglasses, and was pictured puffing a blunt and passing it on to others.
"Mbogi yangu ya power", Nyamu captioned some of the pictures she shared on social media.
Despite criticism for her actions, Nyamu defended herself by pointing out that she had sponsored the tournament and donated Sh50,000 to the winners.
She also questioned why her critics were not acknowledging her sponsorship of the event, tweeting "Why don't you also say that I sponsored cash awards in the individual category in the same tournament?"
