Popular morning radio host and online personality Andrew Kibe found himself in trouble after being taken to court over an unpaid debt going back seven years.
Joshua Ichang’i Weru reportedly loaned his friend Kibe Ksh215,000 in 2012 with the two agreeing on Ksh55,000 as interest at the time.
Court papers, however, indicate that the unpaid debt accumulated over the years and currently stands at Ksh2.5 million.
“Failure to complete the above contractual obligation by 28/02/2012 incurs an additional penalty of 7.5 percent in the above mentioned interest for every four days exceeded from the disclaimer date,” they revealed.
Kibe took to Instagram to post one of his videos soon after being arraigned in court.
The judge had ordered Kibe to pay Ksh500,000 by next week and to appear in court to explain how he planned to pay the balance.
In his video, Kibe wondered how journalists caught onto the story so quickly before delving into advice on friends and debts.
“Nilikuwa nimeshikwa I'm free now talk to me leteni maswali yote mlikuwa nayo kuwa na deni si kitu kubwa ata kuna country ziko na deni, lakini kunishika stesheni iyo nni ungwana kweli?
"I pray that you treat your friends with leniency coz iyo mbio imepelekwa na mtu i thought he was my friend, my friends nimeonyeshwa maneno so please treat your friends with leniency hata kama ako na deni yako isiwe ni kukufa ama kukata na shoka be easy otherwise shall we have any friend any more,” Kibe stated.
