Former Machachari actor Ian Nene, Almasi

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.

According to an online source, the duck test is used to imply that a person can identify an unknown subject by observing that subject's habitual characteristic and draw a conclusion.

Ever since Ian Nene who played the role of Almasi in Machachari has been posting some brow raising photos of himself on social media, word has been going round that he is gay. Is he?

Following a recent photo shoot, comments alluding to his gay behavior have caused him to react and respond.

jayportas Acha uj**ga we ni mwanaume

kyle_yunkai This nigger crazy ????????????????

peace_doyle Umekuwa kimathe

timm_kasaineIf you post something for the public to see you have already given out the right for ppl to judge... so if ppl say you're gay ...that's the impression you have given

ian_nene@timm_kasaine all power to you

ian_nene@timm_kasaine keep on judging coz you've been given the power to by a photo with a flower. If having a flower on my face makes me gay then that's all on you. It must take a whole lot of energy to be this stu**d ????

alvin_angelo_Huu ni dem

emmahomollo Sober up and stop this madness ALMASI..am putting you in my prayers..

Some of the comments read. But this did not stop some from defending him whether gay or not.

And to further drive the point home, whatever point he was trying to make, he posted this alongside a photo of himself holding flowers.

‘’Them: Haha the flower makes you look gay.

Me: Oh really? (Proceeds closer to the flower bed...).’’ The message read.

Don’t say we didn’t tell you. It is all in the words.
