‘It was not fair’ – Kamene Goro backs Betty Kyallo


Radio personality Kamene Goro has come out to defend Betty Kyallo over the harsh treatment that the latter lately been subjected to.

Speaking on her morning show on Kiss FM, Kamene called on Kenyans to be more humane when dealing with celebrities. She said celebrities are not immune to the effects of cyberbullying as many assume is the case. 

“Let’s normalize having some level of humanity. As Kenyans, we look at celebrities and because of their status, we dehumanize them. We forget they have feelings, a soul, and families. The reality of the matter is that there was no video. It was someone who was trying to make some quick cash,” she said.

Kamene went on to point out that Betty is a family woman and deserves to be respected like everyone else seeing as the allegations were fallacious.

“Everyone tore at Betty Kyallo for something that did not exist. People forget Betty has a family, a daughter, businesses, and a heart. Betty is a human being just like you and I. Imagine if you were in her shoes, with what she had to go through over something that didn’t actually exist.”

The radio presenter said what happened to Betty was not fair and implored social media users to be more prudent.

“You can not even imagine the damage it has done to her reputation and her spirit. They are celebrities, we love them and consume their content, but they do not belong to us,” she said.
