Media personality Kamene Goro has revisited her much-discussed comments about her past, finally setting the record straight on remarks that once sparked widespread public debate.
Kamene first made headlines in 2018 after claiming on air that she had slept with 27 men — a statement that quickly went viral and drew strong reactions across social media and conservative circles.
The Comment That Sparked National Debate
At the time, Kamene was co-hosting a radio show with Andrew Kibe, and the discussion around her body count became one of the most controversial moments of her broadcasting career.
The remarks dominated online conversations and significantly shaped public perception of her at the height of her radio popularity.
A year later, during a 2019 interview with True Love magazine, Kamene suggested that alcohol may have influenced how openly she spoke on air and admitted that she regretted how the conversation unfolded.
Kamene Admits the Figure Was Not True
Speaking recently in an interview with veteran broadcaster Alex Mwakideu, Kamene openly admitted that the body count figure was exaggerated.
She explained that the claim was part of a deliberate attempt to spark conversation around sexual health and adult responsibility.
According to Kamene, the number was suggested to her as a campaign tactic rather than a factual personal confession.
“That story about my body count was not true. Let’s make that clear,” she said. “It was meant to bait conversation for a sexual health awareness campaign.”
No Regrets, Only Lessons
Kamene said she avoids revisiting past media moments, choosing instead to focus on the lessons they taught her.
While she acknowledged that some decisions could have been handled differently, she believes those experiences shaped her growth and discipline.
“I don’t have regrets about my past,” she explained. “If I hadn’t gone through all that, I wouldn’t be the person I am today.”
‘The Only Number That Matters Is One’
When asked about her true body count today, Kamene responded light-heartedly, saying the only number that matters to her now is one — her husband.
She noted that her current life is far removed from the phase that once defined her public image and that her personal growth has come through hard lessons and self-reflection.
Family Fallout After the Viral Remarks
Kamene also revealed the personal consequences she faced following the controversy. She disclosed that her father reacted strongly and chased her out of their home in the middle of the night, forcing her to become independent at a young age.
“I was chased away at 3 a.m. with a small pink suitcase,” she recalled, adding that the experience taught her resilience and how to stand on her own.
