Amegongwa! Japanese man charged Ksh 750 for face painting after attending a football match at Nyayo Stadium - Hii Haifai Kupita Mia (VIDEO)

Thursday, November 12, 2026 - A visiting Japanese man was overcharged for face painting after attending the Under-23 AFCON qualifiers at Nyayo National Stadium, where Kenya's Emerging Stars stunned Côte d'Ivoire with a 2-1 victory.

The foreigner, who has been in Kenya for a month, was charged KSh750 to have his face painted in the colours of the Kenyan national flag.

A video showing the face-painting experience has sparked hilarious reactions online, with many Kenyans questioning why he was charged such a hefty amount for a service that normally goes for about KSh100.

Some social media users suggested that the vendor may have taken advantage of the Japanese visitor because he was a foreigner, arguing that the face-painting service should not cost more than KSh100.
