Nick Mutuma has come out to deny sexual allegation claims made on Twitter yesterday.
At least two women claimed that the actor had sexually harassed them.
Koome Gitobu exposed Nick, whom he accused of assaulting his girlfriend. According to Gitobu, the incident took place at the Ameru Festival last year.
In the series of tweets, Gitobu added that he had left his girlfriend in the company of friends. However, when she was about to leave, Nick followed her, grabbed her as she was waiting for a cab and tried to drag her into his room. She was rescued by her friends.
So I showed this screenshot to my girlfriend and turns out Nick has also sexually harassed her before. To the point of trying to force himself on her.

In his response, Nick states that he denies the allegation and is extremely distressed for being linked to the allegations.
I entirely deny the story that is currently circulating about me. I’m extremely distressed that I’m being linked to this. I am passionate about creating an environment where women feel - and are - safe and respected. I would like to speak to @koomegitobu and his gf directly. — Nick Mutuma (@nickmutuma) November 10, 2017
His request to speak to Gitobu and his girlfriend was accepted. Although he maintained his shock at the allegation, he added that he did not remember the events of that evening.
