Monday, May 19, 2025 - A dramatic scene unfolded at Kasarani Stadium when hundreds of desperate job seekers confronted a group of individuals allegedly running a fake overseas recruitment agency.
The youth, armed with the necessary documentation -
including passports, certificates, and resumes - had gathered at the stadium,
lured by promises of lucrative jobs abroad.
The opportunity, they were told, was being facilitated by a
recruitment agency offering connections to overseas employment.
However, trouble started when the so-called recruiters
demanded an interview fee of Ksh 5,000 from each applicant.
The demand for payment quickly exposed the cracks in what
appeared to be a carefully crafted scam.
Sensing they had been duped, the angry youth turned against
the recruiters.
Heated confrontations erupted as the job seekers accused the
recruiters of fraud.
In the video, the job seekers can be seen cornering the
individuals, demanding immediate return of their passports and personal
documents.
This incident highlights the growing vulnerability of
unemployed youth in Kenya, many of whom are willing to risk everything for a
chance at a better life abroad.
Watch the video.
