Senate Speaker Amason Kingi has been thrust into controversy following sensational claims that he allegedly flew to Dubai with six girlfriends, reportedly at the expense of taxpayers.

According to political insiders and viral social media chatter, Kingi is accused of facilitating a lavish foreign trip under the guise of official business. Critics allege that public funds were diverted to cover personal indulgences, though no official audit has been released to support the claims.

The Speaker’s office has not issued a formal response, but the allegations have intensified public debate about extravagance in high office at a time when Kenyans are grappling with tough economic realities.

The supposed Dubai escapade has already become a trending topic on Kenyan Twitter (X) and TikTok, where users accuse Kingi of misusing taxpayer money. Memes, parodies, and hashtags have fueled the storm, with many demanding accountability and transparency in parliamentary expenditures.

This is not the first time Kingi has faced such accusations. During his tenure as Kilifi Governor, he was repeatedly accused by critics of mismanaging county resources to sustain a flamboyant lifestyle. Allegations also surfaced then that he sponsored his former partner, socialite Haentel Wanjiru, though Kingi has consistently denied any wrongdoing.

Civil society groups and anti-graft activists have urged oversight bodies to investigate the latest allegations, warning that unmonitored spending in top offices risks eroding public trust in governance.
