Raymond Omosa, the forex trader better known as Kenyan Prince, has again drawn attention with bold claims about his wealth, saying no one in Kenya or across East and Central Africa matches his status.
Escort vehicle boast
In a video, the flamboyant trader showed off the luxury around him. He singled out a Mercedes-Benz GLE, which he said was acting as his escort vehicle.
“Did you know that I’m the real definition of young, rich and famous in Kenya? East and Central Africa,” he said.
“Tell me who goes with a GLE as an escort, not even the President. It’s not gonna be easy for you guys.”
” ..show me one person…it’s gonna be life like a movie..”, he said.
Inside Kenyan Prince’s claimed wealth
Kenyan Prince has built his public profile on forex trading, social media content and displays of luxury. He has repeatedly credited his financial success to the foreign exchange market, where traders buy and sell currencies to profit from price movements.
Humble beginnings
He has opened up about his tough upbringing in Kisii County, where he says he was raised by his grandmother following his mother’s death.
The trader has spoken about growing up with limited financial resources before venturing into trading and building his online presence.
His online content has increasingly featured luxury cars, foreign travel and designer items. He has also said forex-related ventures bring in income, among them trading education, mentorship and brand partnerships.
Net worth and profit claims
During an interview on the Over 1M Podcast, hosted by Tony Mwirigi, in July 2026, he reportedly put his net worth at Ksh560 million. He said the amount included his businesses, vehicles and property.
He further claimed to earn monthly profits of between Ksh28 million and Ksh29 million, with forex trading accounting for much of his wealth.
