Bradley Marongo, better known as Gen Z Goliath, has alleged that his Bungoma doppelgänger, Isaac Otesa, was exploited by socialite Manzi Wa Kibera in a quest for short-lived fame.
Speaking in a recent interview on Radio Jambo, Bradley disclosed that Manzi Wa Kibera initially reached out to him while he was trending on social media.
However, he turned down her request, feeling that there was no personal gain in interacting with her.
Following his rejection, Bradley claimed the socialite shifted her focus to Otesa, offering him fare to Nairobi in hopes of generating buzz.
“Alikuja [Isaac Otesa] akaenda kwa Manzi Wa Kibera na by the way, Manzi Wa Kibera alikuwa ameniita mimi wa kwanza lakini nilikataa. Alikuwa akiingia live yangu lakini sikuwa nakubali na hapo akachukua opportunity ya kutumia Isaac wa Bungoma fare,” Bradley shared.
According to him, Otesa went to Nairobi with high hopes of quickly gaining fame and fortune, only to return to Bungoma empty-handed and disillusioned.
“Isaac alifikiria akija Nairobi ataomoka once. U celeb si kuomoka once. Ni pole pole. Warefu wanajitokeza, jitokeze tu lakini huwezi ukalalia bahati ya mwenzako,” Bradley commented.
Bradley went on to clarify that he has no personal ties with Otesa, and reiterated that celebrity life is not an easy shortcut to wealth.
Additionally, the 22-year-old revealed that he is currently single and not looking for a relationship, particularly after his six-year relationship ended before his rise to fame.
“Sijisikii ku date sahii but niliwahi kudate kwa miaka 6 before nikuwe celeb. Lakini sahii sitaki kwa sababu wasichana ni wengi. Kando na hapo, sina ndugu anaitwa Isaac, niko na ndugu anaitwa Chris. Huyo Isaac wa Bungoma simjui,” Bradley concluded, dispelling any connections to Otesa beyond their shared resemblance.
