Earlier this year, Anerlisa had reached out to her friends for financial assistance to bail Joe out of police custody. Unfortunately, one of her friends from the WhatsApp group leaked the message to the public.

“When you thought you had real friends, then boom, a blogger sends you a screenshot from a very enclosed group. Tomorrow could be you. At least I know I cannot count on everyone, and that’s okay. And yes, we managed to get out without your help. We good. #GodFirst,” she wrote.

Anerlisa reflected on the situation, stating, “Fake friends are like shadows: always near you at your brightest moments but nowhere to be seen at your darkest hour. True friends are like stars; you don’t always see them but they are always there.”

The saga unfolded when Muigai’s fiancé, Josiah Kariuki, CEO of Silica Booster Limited (SBL), faced allegations related to the distribution of counterfeit fertilizer.
