Kenya’s Youngest Radio Presenter Robbed at Gun Point in ATM Booth

Monday was a dark day for Kenya’s youngest radio presenter. Rynoh a.k.a. Reagan Kukuni was robbed at gun-point as he walked into an ATM machine to make a withdrawal.

Rynoh who hosts Vuka Na Style, a late night show, on Q FM, was in Mombasa for a show when the mishap befell him. On the fateful day, the 22 year old left his hotel room and headed to an ATM machine located at Nakumatt, Nyali. Immediately he stepped into the ATM booth, a gun-wielding orb burst into the booth.

Pointing the gun at him, he ordered him to withdraw all the money in the account and hand it to him. Lucky for Rynoh, August salary had not checked in so he had around KSh28,000. Fearing for his life, he instantaneously did as he was commanded.

The robber then barked him out of the booth ordering him to walk straight to a car (a Toyota Allex) parked just outside the ATM booth and get in. In the car, he met the felon’s accomplices who sandwiched him in the back seat and started probing him.

At this point, Rynoh pleaded with them to let him since he had a show to attend to. Unexpectedly, they let him off the hook and drove away on the spur of the moment.
