A poor man's Jerry Springer show, if such a thing is even possible.

Interestingly enough, KTN removed the videos from YouTube, supposedly after Kidero and the cartels piled pressure on them.
Honestly, after watching the full segment, I really can't fault Miguna for calling Passaris and the cartels out. I mean, it's not like we don't know where and how they got their money and that Passaris does date older sponsors.

Miguna can't be faulted for only one reason IMO. He is generally unhinged. That doesn't mean she might not indeed be all those things he says she is. Bringing up who she sleeps with, calling her names(basically insulting women) is something I associate with only a certain type of loser.
Jeff Koinange's show appears to have fallen on desperate times if these are the kind of things they are willing to promote. The off-camera scene was pretty revealing about the level of disorganization.

Miguna may, as you claim, be unhinged but the main thing I was addressing was Esther Passaris herself.
She is not, in my opinion, a role model for women.
But honestly, insulting her is insulting all decent upstanding Kenyan women?
Bah humbug!
She's also an insider (wheeler dealer) of the Kenya I loath, with an unknown source(s) of her riches.
That was Miguna's message, which got lost in the scandal that is Esther Passaris.

Miguna has thrown pc out of the window which is good.
To hell with the yellow bimbo.

I can see a valid point - the corruption accusation. But who she sleeps with seems overboard and unnecessary - unless he is jealous he is not the one tapping it.

Arab TV stations has the best infotainment

Actually, Miguna was calling Passaris out on her playing the woman card every single time she gets into trouble. The example he used was when she started accusing Mwangi of Equity of sexually assaulting her in 2006 (10 years ago!) after she defaulted on her loans.
People Daily acquired confidential documents detailing the convoluted genesis of Passaris’ financial woes and trouble with Equity Bank. In 2006, Passaris took several loans amounting to Sh60 million from Equity Bank. The money was to be used partly to finance an advertising contract with the lender and finance operations.
As part of the application process, Passaris prepared revenue projections based on receipts of her then thriving advertising company, Adopt-A-Light and presented a business plan.
The bank approved the loans. Life was blissful then. The company was awarded a Sh35.6 million contract by Equity on July 10, 2006 to provide advertising services and an agreement was drawn, supervised by the two parties’ advocates.
Unfortunately for Passaris, the loans and lucrative contract from Equity Bank coincided with a licensing battle with the defunct Nairobi City Council (NCC) over her advertising business, which would severely whittle her business and influence.
Three weeks after she signed the deal with Equity, NCC barred Adopt-A-Light from erecting outdoor advertisements in the city and withdrew her licence. This meant the company could not honour the deal with Equity. This, effectively ushered in troubled times for the businesswoman, who she had to service loans even as her company’s financial fortunes were dipping.
And unable to get Passaris to pay rates, NCC turned on Equity Bank, issuing a demand note to bank accusing it of erecting 244 billboards in Nairobi without its authority.
After a series of law suits and push-and-pull, a result of the impasse, the bank forwarded Passaris’ name to Credit Reference Bureaus, potentially locking her out of the loans market for several years and consigning her to high borrowing charges, in case she is to access a loan facility from other lenders.
Kenyans have weighed in on the dispute, taking sides with either Mwangi or Passaris. Some are accusing the businesswoman of attempt to blackmail the banker.

In short, it's because she owes Equity bank bucks that she's now accusing Mwangi of sexually assaulting her, playing the helpless woman.
