Leading Blogger Admits To Posting the Controversial Sonko – Shebesh Photos Online (Audio)
In a bid to clear his name of the recent scandal that rocked his boat threatening to capsize it, youthful Nairobi senator Mike Sonko made a revelation that the photos were all in a bid to frame him. The senator alleged that there was a group of people who did the manipulation of the photos to try and extort money from him.
Reading out a message from established blogger and activist, Roy Kohadha Ogolla, Sonko lamented that Roy allegedly attempted to extort cash from him to make the photos disappear. Here’s the text that Roy is alleged to have sent to the senator.
“Tulia mhesh. Ulimess, kubali na useme ukweli ongea na okaka akushow vile tunaeza maliza hii maneno. I don’t fight losing battles mostly online. Nitafute tuongee kama maboy…”
However, in a quick rejoinder, the well-known blogger narrates the circumstances that led to the SMS. According to Roy, he posted a photo of Nairobi Women County Rep, Rachel Shebesh with Sonko together in bed from three bloggers whom he refused to name, all in a bid to prove that Sonko was the one behind the randy photos.
“Kwa hivyo naconfirm saa hii on air, of the picture with Mike Sonko holding the phone on the face with Shebesh I am the one who posted it.”
On the alleged text message, Roy alleges that the Senator texted him last Tuesday saying, “You Roy Ogolla you’re trying to wage an online war with me I want to tell you that I don’t lose battles” and that’s why he responded with that SMS.
