Sportpesa CEO sets the record straight on Sh3.8 billion private Jet

The CEO who is known for his flashy lifestyle comes clean

The retired Pilot has refuted the claims, stating that the images doing rounds on social media, were taken during one of his tours around the world and people decided to share them with allegations that he had bought a private jet.
