An 11-year old girl has taken to Instagram accusing popular radio presenter and entertainer Phelix Odiwour better known as Jalang’o of stealing Sh4,500 from her.
Wendy Waeni, a well-known acrobat in Kenya alleges that Hot 96 Fm presenter called her for a show along Mombasa road but refused to pay her the full amount after her presentation.
Waeni mentioned that Jalas did this when he hosted a show on KTN dubbed 'Jalang'o with the money'.
On her Instagram account, the little girl questioned Jalas on when he was planning to pay the amount.
“Jalang’o when are you paying me Sh4500 that you an away with when I was still struggling in this industry..?? In case you have forgotten let me remind you that on that day you almost made us walk from Mombasa road to Huru ,” Waeni said as quoted by a local daily.
Jalang’o has since rubbished the allegations as false accusing Wendy’s manager of using the little girl to solicit money from celebrities.
Responding to the Instagram post Jalas noted: “I know this is not you but if those are your thoughts on the issue then I am sorry for you”.
The radio show host dismissed the Sh4,500 as little money highlighting: "Do I look like the type that would run away with Sh4500? Do you know how much a Bentley costs?”
Speaking to Kenyans.co.ke Jalango added: "I actually sent the money, I sent Sh5,000 but the guy (Waeni’s manger) wanted more claiming it was taxi money”.
