Kenyan influencer and entrepreneur Ntazola has responded strongly to claims that wealthy men are funding her expensive lifestyle.
The social media personality dismissed the rumours and insisted that she works hard for her money and handles all her expenses independently.
Ntazola spoke after online critics questioned how she manages to maintain her flashy lifestyle, which includes expensive fashion, a good car and a comfortable home. Some social media users had alleged that sponsors or rich men were supporting her financially.
However, the influencer made it clear that she depends on her own businesses and personal income.
To support her statement, Ntazola shared screenshots showing that she had more than KSh 418,000 in her M-Pesa account. She explained that the amount reflected money she had earned through her business activities and hard work.
According to Ntazola, many people assume successful women must be receiving help from men, yet some women are capable of building wealth on their own.
She further revealed that her monthly expenses are very high because of the lifestyle and responsibilities she carries. The influencer said she spends between KSh 380,000 and KSh 400,000 every month.
The money goes toward rent, shop expenses, transport, car maintenance, fuel, internet, electricity and other daily utilities.
Ntazola explained that running a business is expensive and requires discipline, consistency and sacrifice. She noted that many people only see the glamorous side of social media without understanding the hard work happening behind the scenes.
The influencer also encouraged young women to focus on working hard and creating income for themselves instead of depending entirely on others.
Her remarks sparked mixed reactions online. While many fans praised her for being transparent about her finances and inspiring independent women, others questioned why she felt the need to prove herself publicly.
