Tuesday, December 2, 2025 - Musician Kevin Kioko, popularly known as Bahati, has responded after a woman surfaced online claiming to be his biological mother. In a widely circulated video, the unidentified woman alleges that poverty forced her to abandon her child as an infant. She pleads for forgiveness, recognition, and a chance to meet the singer, insisting that a spiritual conviction has led her to believe Bahati is her son. “My spirit tells me, ‘This is my son,’ and it troubles me every day,” she says in the clip. She further claims that after years of emotional struggle, she became convinced, through what she describes as guidance from the Holy Spirit, that Bahati is the child she left at a children’s home many years ago. Bahati has, however, dismissed the claims, stating that his biological mother passed away more than 25 years ago. According to the artist, he personally witnessed his mother’s burial. “But my mum died over 25 years ago. I personally attended the burial and witnessed her grave. This woman has confused me more. So what should I do???” Bahati wrote in a post on X. @peninahrasugufoundation #viral #everyone #foryou #kenyantiktok🇰🇪 #viraltiktok ♬ original sound - Peninah Rasugu Foundation The Kenyan DAILY POST

Tuesday, December 02, 2025 - Stand‑up comedian turned activist, Eric Omondi, has revealed the tough journey that followed his rise to fame on the Churchill Show, sharing how career struggles eventually led to his belongings being auctioned. Speaking on the Mic Cheque podcast, Omondi recalled feeling stuck after the first season of the show. “Season one ilikuwa pekeyangu, alafu season two kina Fred Omondi, Teacher Wanjiku na Owago Onyiro wakajoin, nikafeel nimehit ceiling, alafu watu wakaanza kuni compare na wengine,” he said. “Alafu kukakuwa na a lot of Eric Omondi wa Churchill, na mimi nilitaka kukuwa tu Eric Omondi.” Determined to grow beyond the Churchill brand, he approached the host about leaving and later launched Eric Omondi Untamed. But when Churchill took a break, Omondi suddenly found himself without a platform. KTN offered him a show modeled after Churchill Show, but the rushed production quickly collapsed. “Hawayuni happened when Churchill went on a break… KTN wakanicall wakanipea show na pesa na format ikuwe tu kama ya Churchill show,” he revealed. “It was on air for two episodes, and it was the worst… the jokes were very funny, but the sound was bad.” The failure hit his brand hard. Work dried up, and Omondi eventually faced financial ruin. “Brand yangu ikaenda chini mbaka nilikuwa auctioned… walikuja na pickup ya white wakaanza kubeba fridge,” he recalled. Forced to move in with his cousin, Omondi survived on just one major brand deal in two years. However, he insists the hardship shaped him. “I learnt my lesson… the best thing that ever happened to me is Hawayu. I needed to make that mistake,” he reflected. The Kenyan DAILY POST

The emotional twist has left fans divided, with many urging Bahati to seek clarity through DNA testing, while others sympathize with the woman’s heartfelt confession. @peninahrasugufoundation #viral #everyone #foryou #kenyantiktok🇰🇪 #viraltiktok ♬ original sound - Peninah Rasugu Foundation The Kenyan DAILY POST

Tuesday, December 02, 2025 - American digital nomad and YouTuber, Austin Holloman, has vowed never to return to the U.S after settling in Nairobi, Kenya, a city he now calls home. Having traveled to more than 50 countries, Holloman says Kenya offered him something he didn’t know he was searching for, freedom, community and peace. “I was running away from the U.S. because of the social life aspect,” he explained. “Yes, there’s the high cost of living, yes, there’s GMO, yes, there’s racism, and yes, it’s a violent state, everything played a factor.” In America, Holloman found it difficult to organize simple gatherings with friends. In Nairobi, however, spontaneous meet‑ups and warm social circles quickly became his norm. Within hours of arriving to shoot travel content, he felt a spiritual shift. “God told me that any doubts I had about Kenya were irrelevant. I fell in love within the first few hours,” he shared. Today, Holloman resides in Kileleshwa, one of Nairobi’s leafy neighborhoods, paying KSsh 97,000 monthly for a modern apartment that would cost over KSh 517,000 in Dallas. His monthly budget ranges between Ksh 155,000 and KSh 645,000 depending on lifestyle and travel, yet he insists Nairobi offers financial peace he never had in the U.S. Goods and services, he estimates, are four times cheaper. Beyond affordability, Holloman treasures the emotional ease, safety, comfort, and belonging. “I came here to rebuild my life,” he said simply. “And now, I’m not going back.” The Kenyan DAILY POST
