Flamboyant forex trader and social media influencer Raymond Omosa, better known as Kenyan Prince, has revealed that his recent viral social media stunts were part of a calculated strategy to stay relevant in the competitive Kenyan digital space. In a candid interview with Milele FM, Kenyan Prince opened up about his attention-grabbing antics, including claims of a breakup with his girlfriend, Stephanie, and a car accident, both of which he admitted were not what they seemed.
Kenyan Prince explained that the reported breakup with Stephanie was a mere fabrication, designed to stir up buzz online and keep him trending. He candidly confessed that, especially in the Kenyan social media space, it’s crucial to sometimes play with the public’s perception to stay in the spotlight. “Hatukuwa tumewachana. Unajua vizuri sana kuwa kwenye hii Kenyan social media space, for you to survive, sometimes ni vizuri kucheza na akili ya watu kidogo alafu wewe unabaki hapo ukiwa unatrend. Sisi tumekuwa tumelala hapa tukiwachekelea mkicomment online,” he admitted, acknowledging that he and his girlfriend had never actually broken up.
The claims of their separation were strategically timed just before Valentine’s Day, a move that played on the emotions of his followers, keeping him at the forefront of online discussions. Kenyan Prince made it clear that it was all about keeping his name in the media and staying relevant in the digital world.
Additionally, the viral video from February 12, which showed his black Mercedes-Benz GLE blocking traffic after allegedly being involved in a collision with a Mazda, was another stunt. The video quickly gained traction on social media, with many assuming it was a serious accident. However, Kenyan Prince dismissed the incident, revealing that it was nothing more than “mbwe mbwe,” or a show for clicks. “Ile pia haikuwa ajali ilikuwa ni mbwe mbwe,” he said, admitting it was part of the social media spectacle to drive engagement.
Despite the controversial stunts, Prince reassured fans that his relationship with Stephanie was still intact. “Mimi nilioa na pia harusi ni hivi karibuni,” he said, confirming that they are living together and even planning a wedding soon.
The forex trader also took the opportunity to clear the air on rumors surrounding his wealth and lifestyle. He dismissed accusations that he was involved in shady or malicious business dealings, affirming that his success was earned through legitimate means, despite the rumors of his extravagant lifestyle.
Kenyan Prince’s revelation has sparked mixed reactions among his followers. While some have praised his honesty, others expressed disbelief or amusement at the lengths he is willing to go for attention. One fan commented, “Enyewe uliniambia ni kipindi 😂I now get it,” while another remarked, “Wewe tunaachia mungu sasa.” Despite the varying opinions, it’s clear that Kenyan Prince has successfully grabbed the public’s attention once again.
This latest admission follows a previous controversy where he was rumored to have been involved in multiple car accidents within the same month. Kenyan Prince explained that he rarely drives himself and has a personal driver, debunking the claims that his frequent accidents were due to his reckless behavior or alleged past dealings with people he may have wronged.
In the ever-competitive world of social media, Kenyan Prince has proven that staying relevant often requires bold moves—and he’s not afraid to play the game. Whether people agree with his approach or not, his ability to maintain the spotlight is undeniable.
