Kenyan comedian Mulamwah is facing backlash from some of his followers who accuse him of glorifying poverty for attention.
This comes after the Milele FM presenter shared photos and videos of himself and his partner, Ruth K, in a traditional mud house with two beds placed side by side.
The setting included an old-generation TV positioned on a weathered table, and parts of a speaker placed on a yellow jerrycan, creating an ambience of impoverished living conditions.
