Kameme FM presenter Muthoni wa Kirumba, widely known as Baby Top, has spoken publicly after online discussions raised concerns about her safety and wellbeing. The issue gained traction after social media users expressed alarm over claims that her personal information had been exposed, including her phone number and location. The situation quickly spread across platforms, drawing attention from both supporters and critics. Baby Top later confirmed that she was safe, but her statement introduced new allegations that escalated the public debate. The incident has placed her at the centre of a heated conversation involving privacy, politics and digital security in Kenya.
Concerns about Baby Top’s safety began circulating on social media on the night of Saturday, June 13, when users claimed she might be in danger. The conversation intensified as people shared warnings and questioned her whereabouts. Baby Top, who has recently been more outspoken in political discussions and has shown support for DCP party leader Rigathi Gachagua, became a trending topic. Her growing political visibility added another layer of attention to the situation. As speculation increased, many users called for clarity and urged her to confirm whether she was safe.
Shortly after the online panic, Baby Top responded directly through Facebook to calm the situation. She assured her followers that she was fine and thanked them for the concern. She wrote, “Just woke up and found that I have thousands of phone calls and messages.. I am fine, thank you.” The message helped reduce immediate fears, but it also marked the beginning of a more serious discussion. Instead of ending the conversation, her statement shifted attention toward allegations she later made involving senior political and security figures.
Baby Top went on to make strong claims against former Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria, who is also her uncle. She alleged that he was involved in exposing her phone number and location through his WhatsApp status and other social media activity. She further questioned the involvement of the Directorate of Criminal Investigations, suggesting that her data may have been tracked and shared. In her statement, she asked why her number and location would be monitored and then circulated, and she raised concerns about how such information was handled. She also questioned whether she was being treated as a suspect or if there was a coordinated effort against her.
Alongside her written statement, Baby Top shared screenshots that she claimed showed WhatsApp statuses containing her location details. She also posted call logs showing multiple unidentified numbers that reportedly contacted her within a short time window. These posts fueled further debate online, with users analyzing the evidence and questioning its implications. The allegations sparked mixed reactions, with some expressing concern about digital privacy and others calling for verification of the claims. The situation highlighted how quickly personal disputes and political tensions can escalate on social media platforms.
At the time of publication, neither Moses Kuria nor the Directorate of Criminal Investigations had issued a public response to the allegations. The silence from the named parties has left many questions unanswered and allowed speculation to continue circulating online. The incident has also reignited discussions about data privacy, surveillance and the risks faced by public figures who are active in political discourse. It has shown how quickly digital platforms can amplify fears and claims before official clarification is provided. The situation remains under close public attention as users await further updates.
