Ronald Karauri’s 10M challenge to Edgar Obare exploded across Kenyan social media today after the Kasarani MP dared the controversial blogger to release an alleged compromising video, promising a whopping 10 million shillings if he does. The SportPesa boss went live in a bold video, cash stacked visibly, calling the claims fake and demanding proof by evening.
He sat calm but firm, with a white SportPesa jersey on and a laptop open beside bundles of notes. “Produce the video, share it on your platform, and I’ll give you 10 million,” Karauri said directly to the camera, tagging Obare.
The deadline hit at 5 PM sharp – no video by then, money redirects: 8 million to his foundation, 2 million to fix majembe destroyed in a recent boxing event. He called himself “extremely straight”, brushing off rumours as baseless attacks.
The drama traces to leaks from an alleged former male partner claiming danger while sharing screenshots and clips linking Karauri romantically. Obare amplified on his platforms, pulling massive views and heated debates.
Kenyans split quick – some slam invasion of privacy, others demand transparency from public figures. “Reputation not for clout,” one viral comment read, backing the MP.
Karauri stayed defiant, displaying the cash like proof he’s unfazed. “I know that video doesn’t exist,” he added, voice steady. Fans praised the move as boss level, with memes flying with money stacks and challenge captions.
Critics question spending public image cash dramatically, but supporters see clever defence – turning accusation into a dare nobody meets.
Obare has kept quiet so far, with no response or video drop. His pages known for tea-spilling stay watched closely. Past beefs with celebs earned him followers and enemies in the same measure.
This challenge ups the stakes high – 10 million temptations – but a fake call risks a bigger backlash.

Karauri built a name that is flashy yet grounded – a pilot turned betting king, an MP pushing youth and sports. Kasarani loves his touch: roads, events, and direct talk.
Scandal tests that loyalty. Supporters rally loudly, “We stand with Captain,” trending briefly. Others gossip endlessly, the privacy versus accountability debate raging.
By evening, no video surfaced. Karauri likely redirects funds as promised; point proven quietly. But the story lingers – leaks damage even when denied, and trust shakes easily. Kenya talks about character, proof, and money in politics. MP dares won attention, but questions swirl deeper. Watch for Obare to move or Karauri to follow up. Drama is far from closed.
