Over the last one week, Kenyans on social media have shared their experiences with their drinks being spiked in clubs.
The practice, which is now widely known as adding 'mchele' or 'pishori' to a drink, is most common in nightclubs.
Maina Kageni revisited the topic on Classic 105's breakfast show yesterday.
In the conversation, Maina asked if his listeners have heard of people being drugged in town just by someone saying hello, blowing air into your face or bumping shoulders with you.
Maina went on to state that he could not understand how that happens to an extent of giving them your PIN numbers, cash and taking them to your ATM.
"How do you explain this?”
Classic 105 listeners called in, describing their experiences.
One called and said he was buying a trouser from Koja roundabout but found himself in OTC, selling it to get fare home.
"I don’t remember anything that happened," he said.
Another caller advised people not to pick things like bottle tops on the ground.
"I once did that thinking someone dropped it. Wueh, I lost my money, my phone, everything."
You find some old women who borrow you 20 bob. When you decide to listen to them, that is where the problem starts
The hashtag Maina and King’ang’i trended on Twitter, with more listeners giving their experiences.
IamChesitajones: There are those who pretend to be praying for you, I swear they tell you all your problems accurately.
Bee carol: It almost happened to me, luckily I was in a platform where people shared their experience, was coming side za city hall, someone said to me “Beautiful madam, hello”. I had to run away."
Judykimazni: It happened to me kitambo, when I was in college, after nimenunua simu ya touch. I found myself in Mlolongo from town without my phone.
Chelsejones: Juzi I was walking alafu this guy started asking if I had dropped a green carrier bag. He made sure to open it akiwa karibu na mimi ndio nione it had cash. He then suggested we share coz it was Sh50k, he was insisting we go to these shady short-cuts.
Soymo: Hii tabia iko pale Koja. You find some old women who borrow you 20 bob. When you decide to listen to them, that is where the problem starts. They have some drugs that when inhaled utajipata Isinya bila viatu. Happened to my close friend early this year.
Erick Derick: Drugging in matatu is most rampant one! You seated next to the window and someone sits next to you and they pass their hand close to your face with intention of opening the window and thats how you lose consciousness!!
David Karuga: It's very true and especially when you have a lot of cash with you. I don’t know how they know. When you don’t you walk like a free spirit in Nairobi hata watu wa “boss Mombasa, Kisumu” hawaezi kusumbua. Don’t, and I repeat don’t entertain any talks or touching by strangers in Kanairo.
