Kenyans on Twitter have warned KTN news anchor Sophia Wanuna against ‘hidden plans’ of Central Organisations of Trade Unions (COTU) boss, Francis Atwoli.
This is after the COTU opens stating that he admires her.
Sophia was hosting the COTU boss in an exclusive interview on KTN’s Checkpoint show when he abruptly expressed his admiration for her.
Atwoli stated that he was a great fan of KTN, in particular, Wanuna’s show broadcasts.
“I listen to you Sophia. I am a fan of KTN. I am your fan, in particular, you as Sophia. Let me tell you, I listen to you carefully,” Atwoli insisted.
His remarks elicited mixed reactions from Kenyans with a good number insinuating that the flamboyant trade unionist was indirectly hitting on the news anchor.

Although Atwoli might have made his remarks without any ulterior motive, some Kenyans were alarmed and said as much on social media, seeing her as a prime target to become his fourth wife.
