A popular upcoming comedian from Kisii, identified as Victor Nyaata, is under intense scrutiny following the arrest of a woman he met on a first date in a Nairobi hotel.
The woman, Nancy Kawira, was reportedly taken into custody by a police officer after refusing the comedian’s advances and allegedly being asked to pay a refund.
According to social media blogger Edgar Obare, Nancy Kawira had exposed the incident online, claiming that Victor demanded money after she declined to engage in sexual activity.
Following her posts, she was arrested and charged with cyber harassment, sparking outrage from netizens who have questioned the fairness of the action
Edgar Obare, who shared the story on his platforms, called for public support to help the woman, highlighting that Victor Nyaata allegedly appeared at her home with a police officer to have her arrested and questioned over the incident.
The blogger described the situation as alarming and said that several stories about the comedian’s past behavior are now coming to light.
In response, Victor Nyaata has threatened to take legal action against Edgar Obare and Nancy Kawira, accusing them of defaming him online.
The comedian, who has gained fame on social media for his viral skits and performances, is now facing public criticism and calls for accountability.
Many Kenyans have expressed concern over how the law was applied, questioning why Nancy was arrested for speaking out against a more powerful individual.
Others are calling for calm and legal resolution, urging both parties to resolve the matter through proper channels rather than public confrontation.
