Rish Kamunge, a Kenyan content creator, entrepreneur, and gospel singer, has recently found herself at the center of controversy following allegations of running a fraudulent overseas job agency.
Having gained popularity through TikTok and other social media platforms, she was primarily known for her flashy lifestyle and business ventures. She built her brand by sharing travel content, business tips, and job opportunities abroad. With a strong presence on TikTok and Instagram, she frequently posted job vacancies while giving glimpses into her personal life.
Her online influence extended to YouTube, where she operated a channel aimed at inspiring audiences by sharing stories of success, struggle, and ambition. However, despite its promising start, the platform remained relatively inactive, with only a handful of videos and limited viewership.
The Rise and Fall of Trust Pin Verified Agency Ltd
One of her most notable business ventures was Trust Pin Verified Agency Ltd, a travel and recruitment agency that promised job placements overseas, particularly in Mauritius. Through extensive social media promotions, the agency attracted numerous job seekers who were eager to secure employment opportunities abroad.
However, concerns about the agency’s legitimacy began to arise when several individuals reported paying substantial fees, only to discover that the promised jobs did not exist. The situation reached a breaking point when frustrated victims stormed her office and forcibly escorted her to the police station. She is currently under investigation, with authorities urging more victims to step forward.
Her legal representation has since stated that efforts will be made to reimburse those who paid and did not receive employment, attributing the situation to a misunderstanding within the agency.
A Controversial Personal Life
Beyond her business ventures, she has frequently found herself entangled in controversy, particularly concerning her association with a well-known preacher. Speculation has been rife regarding the nature of their relationship, with many alleging a deeper connection. Despite the rumors, she has consistently denied any romantic involvement, insisting that their relationship is purely professional.
A Gospel and Mugithi Singer
In addition to her entrepreneurial endeavors, she has also ventured into music, specifically gospel and Mugithi genres. Over time, she has released several Kikuyu gospel songs, which she shares on a separate YouTube channel under her name. Although her music career has yet to achieve mainstream success, it remains a significant part of her multifaceted public persona.
As investigations continue, the unfolding events surrounding her business dealings and personal life continue to capture public interest. Whether she will be able to recover from this scandal remains to be seen, but for now, she remains a polarizing figure in Kenya’s social media landscape.
