Popular socialite Risper Faith has disputed reports that she conned a former friend of Sh15,000 that he gave her to secure a house the two were putting up at.
Edward, the man in the mix called the Pulse desk claiming that the socialite asked him to give her the cash as payment to her landlord (one Jimmy) only for the landlord to report that he had not received the money after Risper moved from the Kasarani spot to an uptown Kilimani residence last weekend.
“The truth is that the landlord has my rent deposit and I only picked an equivalent of the same from Edward as a compensation as I did not want the long hustle with the landlord. I had been housing Edward, feeding him, clothing him and God knows what... and I don’t see why he is trying to create a story from nothing.
Asked why she was housing a man, the socialite said: “He is a broke a** n**ga and since he was a friend, I was only helping him get his life together. How can I date a man who can’t afford Sh15,000 rent? He should stop saying I was dating him. No! I don’t date broke a*** men.”
