Kairo’s attitude amid adversity is not new. He has on numerous occasions he has faced high-profile arrest linked to allegations of fraud and misrepresentation in his car dealership business, but still kept a positive attitude all through.
Since December 2024, Kairo has been arrested multiple times, his legal troubles unfolding in a pattern that raises questions about his business dealings.
While he blamed economic turbulence and business rivalry for his predicament, the increasing number of complaints suggests deeper issues within his operations.
Kairo, however, maintained that his business was legitimate, claiming he successfully sold over 300 cars worth Sh1 billion in 2024.
It has been barely a month since he was freed from prison after serving time locked in after failing to raise Sh2 Million bond.
In his return to social media, he posted a short message thanking all those who stood by him during his difficult moment behind bars and also did not forget to thank God.
“Glory to God and thanks to the unwavering support,” he posted.
