Kenyan media personality and digital content creator Azziad Nasenya has once again found herself in the spotlight after a voice note believed to be hers leaked online. In the audio, the woman — allegedly Azziad — is heard asking a friend for a loan of KSh 85,000 to pay a hairdresser in Nigeria, citing delayed funds from another source.
The voice note sparked a flurry of speculation across social media platforms, with many questioning whether the popular influencer is facing financial difficulties. The controversy quickly became a trending topic, with fans and critics alike weighing in on the matter.
Azziad Responds with Dismissive Video
In response to the widespread speculation, Azziad released a short video that addressed the situation in a rather indirect manner. Rather than deny or confirm the authenticity of the voice note, the radio presenter brushed off the issue, stating that she would not be entertaining the rumours any further.
“In case I have said anything you hear, anything you see, please believe it,” Azziad said. “I am working on things, I don’t have time to address these things. Don’t come asking me. As long as you are happy.”
Her response, though vague, sent a clear message — she is done discussing the topic. To some, her words came across as dismissive, while others interpreted them as an attempt to regain control of the narrative and move on without offering further clarification.
Questions About Debt and Public Image
The incident has left many Kenyans wondering whether Azziad, who rose to fame in 2020 through the viral “Utawezana” dance challenge, might be experiencing financial strain. In the alleged voice note, she claimed to have exhausted all her options, saying that everyone she reached out to for help gave her excuses.
Despite the online chatter, Azziad maintains that she will not explain herself. When asked by one fan if she was in debt, her response was blunt: “Believe what you want.”
The influencer’s rise to fame has been marked by high-profile endorsements, media gigs, and a strong online presence, which makes the suggestion of financial trouble even more surprising to her followers. Some netizens expressed confusion about how someone with such visibility and apparent success could find herself in such a situation.
A Glimpse Into Her Personal Opinions
In a separate online post, Azziad shared her admiration for Pastor James Ng’ang’a, a figure known for his bold and controversial sermons. She said she appreciates his fearless approach and hinted at the possibility of incorporating his outspoken style into her own content, particularly in comedic skits.
While the drama surrounding the voice note continues to trend, Azziad seems intent on shifting focus back to her career and passions. Her refusal to confirm or deny the audio’s authenticity might be a strategy to avoid fueling further debate.
What’s Next for Azziad?
Azziad Nasenya remains one of Kenya’s most recognizable digital personalities. Whether or not the leaked voice note is authentic, her brand continues to command attention — and scrutiny. With a growing following and increasing media interest, the actress and influencer appears to be embracing a new chapter where she controls her narrative, regardless of the noise around her.
Only time will tell whether the controversy will affect her professional trajectory, but for now, Azziad seems unfazed — choosing silence over scandal.
