Meet Samuel Wachira, a Kikuyu by tribe a self confessed male sex worker ..25 yrs of age. Wachira wears bright makeup and colourful clothing every evening and then heads to work. He struts into an inconspicuous pub near Kirinyaga Road in Nairobi where he orders two beers and waits.
This is yet another promising evening.
“You see, you people condemn us during the day but at night you are our clients,” he says.
Wachira has been a sex worker for eight years now and he is among hundreds of young male sex workers in Nairobi (the No. is growing by the day meaning that business is doing good).
Wachira just who are your clientele and how much do you collect in a night?
Wait for it people here goes..Well his clientele are the who is who in Kenyans political Arena and celebs too. Wachira also says about 90 per cent of his clients are married men. He knows this because they insist that they pay for a hotel room instead of their homes.
Wachira says that he just smiles whenever he sees an Hague bound politician on TV ranting and thumping his chest during political rallies. Wachira laughs because he says, “I smile because I have had several sexual encounters with this Hague bound politician. We even do the 69 when b-jaying each other.”
When asked how much such an encounter will earn him? He proudly says a cool 15K. The lowest he earns per encounter with unknown but well off dudes is 5K.
