Wilkin Fadhili was exposed last week by top celebs in Kenya after claiming that he was the brand behind their success.

The moment for the self proclaimed brand strategist came on Saturday January 2018 on 26th when he uploaded a photo claiming to be the genius behind success of top brands of popular firms and big celebs such as BBC anchor Larry Madowo.

It turned out that Fadhili was one of the mentors on Safaricom’s youth mentorship network, Blaze, and also during the Business Daily’s Top 40 Under 40 Kenyans program.

Celebs have humbled him, and later he apologized as ahead of facing dire consequences of his action.

He also threatened to commit suicide in one of his Tweets.

I honestly want to apologize to everyone for this whole story. I made a huge mistake, and I am paying dearly for it. For all who it has touched and hurt, I am working to make amends and I apologize.

I am thankful to everyone of my friends and family- thank you for your support. It’s really dark right now but I believe that despite it all #NiPossible .

Ruth Ambogo

"WILKINGS FADHILI ODINGA THE CITY CONMAN: Revelation of how I was conned and almost landed in jail."

I thought it best to give this revelation a dissertation-like title becoz folks this is indeed one.
I am exposing @wilkinsfadhili in this thread

Coffee is served stay tuned☕

Betty Kyallo

Just to let anyone concerned about any engagements with Wilkins Fadhili; I wouldn’t want to beat him when he’s already down but what he’s been doing is wrong. He is not my ‘brand strategist’ nor that of Flair By Betty. I asked him to stop using my name but he never listened.

— Betty Kyallo (@BettyMKyallo) January 27, 2019

A meeting we had so he would make a presentation on working with me. However nothing solidified after that one meeting. But he continued to convince people we were working together with this one picture. https://t.co/DSjzUGWixv

Irene Koki Mwani- KQ Pilot

I have no idea who this is and have not had any dealings with him. Thank you for the heads up. @wilkinsfadhili please cease from using my image to promote your work. https://t.co/y02LN2h16x

Boniface Mwangi

Wilkins didn't have to scam to make it.He came to @Pawa254 as a young creative and asked for space sponsorship for his event, sponsorship was approved but he didn't show up. Kenya is a society that glorifies the corrupt rich, Wilkins was scamming his way up before he was exposed. pic.twitter.com/VgbKZMSBUe

Rapper Wangeci

Mimi the only story I have of Wilkins Fraudhili is wondering why a millionaire worth the same shoes throughout the Blaze 2016 summits.
